On the dark ways of a thoughtful land overrun at night Twinkle peaceful thoughts of a million men Whose hearts are bound with love, whose feelings march to the righteous man To feed the young, to grow up strong and fight forever The growth of thought that's stunted by a hot Rhodesian sun The lack of meat, the self-defeat of elderly minds Is vesting the inches of every message and every grace Lift out again ancestors' mistakes Casting gods in death and you die forever And those who are old before their time they know that survival is worth their staying I'll be with my brother's mad horse to shock the logic that death can harm For darkness and the light are of the same night Yet we fight forever The growth of thought that's stunted by a hot Rhodesian sun The lack of meat, the self-defeat of elderly minds Is vesting the inches of every message and every grace Lift out again ancestors' mistakes Casting gods in death and you die forever Thanks for watching!
