Lyrics
The Hunter
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The people are freezing
And the water is warm
And the ice caps are melting
What will happen when they're gone?
Will the experts look stupid
And invert the facts?
Will they give you back your donations
Or keep the paper stacks?
The feeling is mutual
You don't like what we do
Because we say what we are thinking
And that shocks and frightens you
The lion in the jungle shows no shame, it shows no pride
It does what it needs to to stay strong and to survive
The hunter
The hunter
You can keep it
Don't want it
Keep smiling through your teeth
Oh, what is it?
Your justice cut the hands of the thief
He was starving
His children were crying to be fed
And now they're bawling
And dying
But at least you are ahead
Just be patient
Keep waiting
That's what they always say
But you're tired and you're aching
And the pain won't go away
So stand up and speak out
See that your needs are met
Oh the odds are against you
But please place your bet yeah
You keep it
We don't want it
You keep it
We don't want it (the hunter)
You keep it (the hunter)
We don't want it (the hunter)
You keep it (the hunter)
We don't want it
It's useless and worthless
We're staring at the sun
Oh it is reckless and pointless
But it's also very fun
It's useless and worthless
We're staring at the sun
Oh it is reckless and pointless
But it's also very fun
It's useless and worthless
We're staring at the sun
Oh it is reckless and pointless
But it's also very fun
It's useless and worthless
We're staring at the sun
Oh it is reckless and pointless
But it's also very fun
You keep it
We don't want it
You keep it
We don't want it (the hunter)
You keep it (the hunter)
We don't want it (the hunter)
You keep it (the hunter)
We don't want it
