lyrics

Look how the world is growing so small
Look out the window and take in it all
Poised like a pearl in the dark depths of space
But this is the home of a blood-thirsty race

Each generation will seek for a sign
A cure for it’s woes or a virus divine
Wayward messiahs our hearts to align
This generation is seeking a sign

Men fight for power
the lust for control
Men fight for freedom
each war takes it's toll

Land after land wasted
and for what gain?
Life after life taken--
death's endless reign

But the wars and the lies and suffering will cease
When our hope and our love and mercy will increase
The striving will end from the greatest to the least
When we all answer the calling of the Prince of…

I'm one of many who hope for a change
but we are all strangers and this land is strange
Poised like an opal in the dark of night
but we've turned our world into one endless fight

Men fight for power
the lust for control
Men fight for freedom
each war takes it's toll

Land after land wasted
and for what gain?
Life after life taken--
death's endless reign

But the wars and the lies and suffering will cease
When our hope and our love and mercy will increase
The striving will end from the greatest to the least
When we all answer the calling of the Prince of…

But the wars and the lies…
…suffering will…
…the Prince of…
…but the wars and the lies…
…and the calling of…

A nice album with catchy songs in hi res (24/88.2) stereo and surround too. A steal for only $5.00, worth more though. Robert Van Diggele

Welcome to the world of The Golden Bonana. This album feels like good vibes by the campfire, the safety of a friendly yellow gorilla guiding you through the wilderness, and hot coffee on cold night. village
