The Raceless Man
The Raceless
My body is just a shell that I wear,
quite how it looks I have scarcely a care,
for I have no sight to cause me any pain,
or to make me view you with any disdain.
I'm told I have a colour but what does that mean,
perhaps it's like the flavours that I taste in ice cream,
I like the taste of all of those I've ever yet tried,
vanilla, coffee or chocolate, they slide smoothly...

Brothers Right Enough
There are those that say it's black,
and those that say it's white,
even those that say it's red,
and yes they all know they are right.
Who are we to say they're wrong,
each views from where they stand,
but for myself I'd like to say,
there are more colours close to hand.
Seek those out and you may then see,
a rainbow that is harder to shake...

One World Soon
ONE WORLD SOON
One hope I have for my children
No hunger or fear in their lives
Every parent wants this, so that is no surprise
When will the world meet in honesty
Openly plan an end to all poverty
Remove the crowns from the commerce kings
Let morality stand proud within all our tradings
Don't let it take too long my friends
Seek...

One Planet, One People
One planet, one people,
one last chance to survive,
if we don't work together now,
just how will our children thrive?
Take a fresh look at the facts,
and think hard for a while,
it makes sense to adopt peace,
so we can all eat and smile.
There's nothing hard about sharing,
we just need to put aside all the junk,
that's destined for the...

The Future Is So Near
If the world were only as that second sight within the mind,
where pictures are all perfect and the people so very kind....
Just close your eyes and wait upon the visions to arrive,
and try when you awake to bring those pictures full alive...
There are those that say "He's just a dreamer" yes,
but remember that all great men had their dreams to test..

Common Needs
I'm not afraid to stand and shout "I care,
for my friends and neighbours - everywhere",
as I know we are all truly one great family,
with one common mother astride our genealogy.
Why should we fight and waste so much life,
our common needs are best served without strife
don't poison all this world with toxins that kill
from weapons that make our troubles ...

Munee, Munee, Munee...
Munee, munee, munee - that was their only cry
Shallow, shallow, shallow - they'll never touch the sky
"Gimmee a footballer wiva hunky wad, that'll make me smile",
Listen to them in the clubs, poles apart with their pseudo guile.
What hope for the future were we all to choose that path,
looking out for number one only - don't make me laugh,
for that's the sure...

When We Share
Assimilate, but don't imitate,
absorb the goodness that you see,
rejecting all the bad ways of hate,
assured we can do better if we only try.
Let us live within each others eyes,
see the world as one united soul,
never more to clash with futile sighs,
for we can do so much better as a whole...
Move ever forward into clear days of hope,
trust...
