Lyrics

"Flambeau Fire"... (Track 1 of 14)

Flambeau fire Flambeau fire
I see you in the night.
Flambeau fire Flambeau fire
A torch to make the light.
Ooo-ooo-ooooo-ooo-oooo (repeat).

I know someday
Someday I will be free.
I know someday
Some day you will turn and see
People breathing freely
Drinking waters pure
I know I know some day we’ll be secure.

And our democracy
We’ve made hypocrisy
Will come to be true
Not insurmountable
Become accountable
To the Earth wind waters too

My bones thank you for your minerals, Earth
My blood thanks you for your waters, Earth.
Your light celebrates the blue, blue
In my lovers eyes
Eyes shine, ears hear

Ego obsession, your oppression
Will fade with the dawn
Its your affection, our connection
Will turn the whole world on
Can you hear your children
Singing in the dawn
Can you feel their future bright and strong

And the industrial, criminal
Will find a better way
It’s called pretreatment,
And not ‘excreetment’
We’ll recycle a brand new day.

No more hungry; no more hungry
No more homeless; no more homeless
No more lonely; no more lonely
No more hopeless; no more hopeless.

Flambeau fire, Flambeau fire
Flaming fire, Flambeau fire
I see you in the day; I see you in the night.
I see you in the river
See you in the light shine
Of my lovers eyes–shine, ears hear.

No more hungry; no more hungry
No more homeless; no more homeless
No more lonely, no lonely
No more hopeless; no more hopeless.
