when the drum beats
big country
is this all we're gonna be
a helpless united nations
war in the african nations
just a mess of frustration
when they beat a drum it's too much to swallow
when they beat that drum it just sounds so hollow
and the magnificent seven
when they beat a drum it's too much to swallow
when they beat that drum it just sounds so hollow
and generals find a resting place
for leaders too will be replaced
if fear and fate come face to face
leave a red sky for night time
give the whole of the life lime
leave us out of the dead line
when they beat a drum it's too much to swallow
when they beat that drum it just sounds so hollow
when they beat a drum it's too much to swallow
when they beat that drum it just sounds so hollow
