lyrics

The Seekers (intro 8 measures)
A man told me the ride would be easy
In a short time I'll be leaving
Staying on the motherland
would've meant to die there
You can't blame me it's not fair
Asylum seekers
no choice
Asylum seekers 1X
what choice
I dream't that I heard the birds in tune
Enduring the crossing of the big blue
Not all can beat the threatening waves
I'm not even sure if we'll be saved
How many more will pay to get away
Risking their lives to find some place
Thinking Thinking how to survive
A friend told me that I wouldn't get there
That I shouldn't even try but I swear!
Staying on the motherland
would've meant to die there
You can't blame me, it's not fair
Asylum seekers
no choice
Asylum seekers 1X
what choice
How can the boarders open their arms
All cries, rapes, hunger overwhelming them
From cramped up boats, to crowded camps,
Nothing works, but the cold water dripping on them
We fled from war, we fled from hunger
we fled from climate change motherland is dying
we just want a life
Asylum seekers
no choice
Asylum seekers 3X
what choice
Don't rock the boat, Don't Rock the boat, Don't tip the boat over, Don't rock the boat
Don't rock the boat, Don't Rock the boat, Don't tip the boat over, Don't rock the boat
Don't rock the boat, Don't Rock the boat, Don't tip the boat over, Don't rock the boat
Asylum seekers
no choice
Asylum seekers 2X
what choice

Par son titre - Mother Earth Is Crying cet album, ce projet intrigue. Ici, au fil des neuf titres mis en boîte par ce trio emmené par la chanteuse et musicienne franco-canadienne Tania Zolty, il est question de présent et de futur, de conscience et de non violence, d’exil et d’asile. Mother Earth is Crying parle de notre monde et de ses dérèglements avec lucidité ... ... more
