integration (not segregation) - ben brookes lyrics

[verse 1]
i went looking for the middle but all i could find was the edge
perhaps you shouldn’t listen to a word simple simon had said
i’d been left to hunt and gather in a world that’s practically dead
you’d better pack yourself a bag, we’re leaving for mars instead

[chorus]
before the bomb drops on my house
before the napalm takes me out
i’ll be halfway there
you’d come if you care

[verse 2]
and just think, if we could f-ck off, and get ourselves out of here
and think, if we could take the trees, and plant them anywhere
and, well, wouldn’t it be good if you could take all the good things in life
and build a better world without religion, nor evil, nor spite?

[chorus x 2]
before the bomb drops on my house
before the napalm takes me out
i’ll be halfway there
you’d come if you care

[verse 3]
funny how the world we live in is divided by race
but cut anyone in half and you’ll know we all bleed the same
and it seems as though we’re living in a world of oppression and fear
that’s why i plan to build a rocket and get myself out of here (5 — 4 — 3 — 2 — 1 — fire)

[chorus]
before the bomb drops on my house
before the napalm takes me out
i’ll be halfway there
you’d come if you care

[outro]
but not one of you care — not one of you care

[john f. kennedy]
the very word ‘secrecy’ is repugnant in a free and open society and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and secret proceedings. we decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweigh the dangers which are cited to justify it
