Reggae Calypso

                                  His eyes are closed his face pale asleep

On the ground a newspaper reads

The blood has spilled again

And you just dream my yellowman



Yellowman

The angels burn a torch to keep us warm

His lungs are wide awake but he won't breathe

He spits out the ocean and we dream



Like goldfish in a bowl

They think we're free

Yellowman

You're tying rocks to clouds to stay above the crowds



The angels burn a torch to keep us warm

The blood has spilled again

And you just dream

Yellowman



You never see the bloodstains on the battlefield

The angels burn a torch to keep us warm
