Listen |
| Listen to the rhythm, listen to the rhyme |
| Listen to the clock tick tock the hands of time |
| Ticking, tocking, constantly revolving |
| Listen to the problems of the world that need solving |
| Listen to the child crying in the crib |
| And listen to the sick act that daddy did |
| See daddy turned his back on all of his responsabilities |
| Listen how mommy copes to the best of her abilities |
| Listen to the cliche rapper that’s bragging |
| Listen to the mother who is always nagging |
| Her son to get up and do something with his life |
| Listen to the vows when you’re marrying your wife |
| Listen to the scream of a mother giving birth |
| Listen to the sorrow of our Mother Earth |
| Listen to the beggarman begging in the street |
| Please can you spare some change so I can get some food to eat |
| Listen to the plight of the homeless |
| And if you listen to the pessimists everything’s hopeless |
| Listen to your heart, listen to your soul |
| Listen to your conscience, let it take control |
| And just listen |
| Listen… |
| Écoute la palombe, paisible dans le ciel |
| Écoute aussi la balle qui lui déchire les ailes |
| Qui est l’animal, l’oiseau ou le tireur? |
| Ou celui qui vend l’arme, qui lui déchire le cœur? |
| Écoute le dernier 'pff' d’un soldat inconnu |
| Écoute tomber les larmes d’une femme qu’on fait cocue |
| Écoute le consensus dans son entourage |
| Il était consciencieux quelle force et quel courage |
| Écoute plutôt le 'bzz' des ailes de l’abeille |
| Elle se fout du bizz, l’essentiel est le miel |
| Écoute aussi le 'pshit' que fait l’insecticide |
| Comme dans le monde actuel elle a choisi le génocide |
| Le Pen traîne sa haine malsaine |
| Écoute plutôt ton cœur, pas la flamme de la haine |
| Écoute plutôt le bon, pas la brute ou le truand |
| Écoute ce qui apaise |
| Écoute-moi ce son |
| Écoute… |
| Listen to the fascists looking for your vote |
| Listen how he gets some with a scapegoat |
| He sees your tears and plays on your fears |
| Till his promises become music to your ears |
| Écoute le clic-clac d’une paire de menottes |
| Le système est malade mais est-ce bien l’antidote? |
| Écoute la sirène qui file dans le domaine |
| La haine est la même, même dans ce domaine |
| Listen to the horrors my people saw |
| Listen to the politics of the gulf war |
| Place all the blame and name Hussein insane |
| Listen how he said two can play the same game |
| Écoute le chant du coq, le solfège s’en moque |
| Écoute le chantage des rois du bavardage |
| Écoute le tonnerre, Prévert, guerre à la guerre |
| Écoute le croyant quand il fait sa prière |
| Listen… |
