Lyrics
Natives
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.
Once upon a time there were some relatives of yours and mine,
the ancient ones that came before
We've done our best to lay them all to rest, it's hard to find
them anymore
(Now that's for sure)
But sometimes when I close my eyes I see that they're all still
alive
Just talkin' to ya, livin' through ya, trying to get us all to
do our part
(So, when we gonna start?)
Heeeyyyy! We need another point of view, just do it, like the
natives do
Heeeyyyy! We need another point of view
I think I'll take a walkabout before the calendar run's out
A vision quest to open up our minds
The spirits keep in touch with me to let me know we're running
out of time
(yours and mine)
We all say that we're in tune but still we stay bed 'till noon
With all we see we still don't do enough
2 buildings fall. we're still in bed asleep. What does it take
to wake us up?
(I don't know)
Heeeyyyy! We need another point of view, just do it, like the
natives do
Heeeyyyy! We need another point of view
