The white thief comes
Bangs his drums drums drums
And he takes takes takes
When the white thief comes

The white thief hides
In his lies lies lies
And he steals steals steals
Then the white thief hides

Everyone fears
When the white thief comes
Everyone dies
By the white thief’s drums

It’s a long long road
To the white thief’s town
By any means
Take the white thief down

There will be peace
When the white thief dies
Then we’ll all see the truth
Through the white thief’s lies

Now there’s no more greed
In the white thief’s eyes
And we’re all safe now
From the white thief’s lies

There is no drum
No white thief comes
And we’re all free now
From the white thief’s thumbs

Women sing of matriarchy
While mother slams her fist and cries
At dawn we smash the patriarchy
And drink to its demise

Mom loved the mountains
Dad loved the sea
Somewhere on that horizon
I fell in love with me

I have not
But a breath of luxury
To give my mother
For her sacrifice
I will not trade it
For one more month
Of living
