Kalau Nasty (seriously!)

1. I'm tired, I'm tired
of this big farce.
The people, the people
are so low-class.
Prabhupada offers them help but they'll just pass.
I don't really blame them,
look who's in charge.
2. Jesus Christ is the Saviour,
the 'Christians' say.
But they break the Lord's Commandments
every single day.
"Thou shalt not kill" at the top of the list.
But for Christmas it's total bloodsport
and for Easter it's fish.
Chorus:
Kalau Nasty,
very nasty,
very nasty indeed.
Why?
Must the animals bleed?
Don't they realize that one day it'll be the other way
around.
The goat'll chop your head off and the cow will take you to
town!
3. We're all suffering,
suffering in this material hole.
But some fools think that they're not because of how much
they've got.
When you tell them that you lose all that at death,
they turn around and say
when that time comes then they'll fret.
Repeat Chorus
Maha-mantra x 4

1. Dear Mark, I never really knew you, but now I know you
well
when I saw your parents cry, my own tears also fell
your friends sang their song for you, so sweet and so true,
Dear Mark, how really could this happen to someone like you?
2. when I heard the news from Gerard from boxing day,
I had no idea what to do but just begin to pray
heard so much about you, only good things they all say
but I never got to hear you make your guitar play
Chorus - your struggle won't go in vain,
your memory won't go down the drain.
these buggers cause us all so much pain,
from our nation we have to clean this stain.
3. that day in the church, I could see it well,
you are very much loved, and anyone could tell.
no way your dad could make your mum's tears quell
man, definitely justice will be done, for this they will
burn in hell
(repeat chorus)
4. one thing that made me smile when they spoke about your
cut-short life
I heard that you danced with Hare Krishna, which is the key
to end all this strife.
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare

Only

Only by the Will of Sri Krishna does anything occur,
so why do people think that anything is up to them?
this nonsensical-attitude has dragged us this far,
and we will let it drag us to our very ends.
look at the man smoking the cigar,
does he think he is a steam-engine?
everybody thinks they're happy in that bar,
do they know where their intelligence went?
Chorus -
this human life is meant
for self-improvement.
not for serving the senses
but to give Krishna enjoyment.
this is our real position (Hare Krishna),
this is our eternal-religion (Hare Rama).
Hari Bol!
(guitar solo)
the word has gone too far
with all of its nasty trends.
let's see how far they'll go
for Hell is at the other end!
(repeat chorus)
(repeat verse 1)
'Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare'

little child,
what did you do to anyone?
what could you do to anyone,
to deserve such an end to your fun?
little boy,
you could be anybody's son.
now you cannot run, now you are gone
a life now started, suddenly done.
Chorus -
is this what we must continue to let pass
is the government just sitting on their ass(es)?
action's long overdue, the time's long past
must be done, be done fast
lady,
you could be anybody's mom
they murdered your child and made you numb
yet the leaders seem to remain dumb
people,
we've got to remember that we are all in this
it may not be your child this time
but yours can also be missed
(repeat chorus)
Dear God,
we know it's Kali-yuga,
all of this nastiness,
it cannot exclude
only when we obey,
can things go our way
open all our hearts, our minds
and let us all finally pray...
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare.

SADE

(from the album 'Cuatro')

"1. Sade
'hello' i never got to say
but now they have ended your day
and affect so many
2. so many loved you
and now mourn this great loss
do not worry folks,
they will deal with the Boss
chorus -
in this age the innocent are cut down
the culprits escape and make us all frown
do not worry people, the one with the real Crown
will ensure that in Hell they drown
3. from what i hear of you, you were a lovely soul
i'm sure all around you wanted you to grow old
but this is just how it is in this time and place
people who attack no others get the worst slap in their face
chorus -
in this age the innocent are cut down
the culprits escape and make us all frown
do not worry people, the one with the real Crown
will ensure that in Hell they drown
4. senseless early departure sickos they should capture
for now we pray for ya to be with the Lord ever after
(maha-mantra x 3) "
