put our hearts together

Singer:bruce cockburn

don't need the everlasting trade expansion

don't need the cold white heroin breath

don't need pizzarro or the inquisition

no berserk worship of a hero's death

don't need reactionary politicians

don't need the gunfight at the o.k. don't need no reverend paisley hate-masturbation

don't need no jihad or no ira

we need to put our hearts together

set up a rhythm in combination

and if we put our hearts together

we get a rhythm that will shake creation

who needs supremacy of pink people

there's no such thing as a pure racial strain

it takes all colours to make a rainbow

takes every part to make a working brain

the whole of history is a growing together

if you want pure

you're gonna have caves again

anyway who needs a geek like the grand dragon

so full of shit his breath makes acid rain

we need to put our hearts together

set up a rhythm in combination

and if we put our hearts together

we get a rhythm that will shake creation

woman-in-kitchen

man-in-palace

worshipping the performance of the phallus

gaming for power till their hearts grow callous

as if a human's just an animal with malice

limp lance

phallocrat

finger on the trigger

go ahead and stay small while everything gets bigger

it's a bully's game and i don't want to play

why don't you think about the better way

we need to put our hearts together

set up a rhythm in combination

and if we put our hearts together

we get a rhythm that will shake creation
