Instant intuition (remembering childbirth)
I was stone cold as a baby, so don’t you teach me how to count to three
I trembled in fear for the blazing fire in the family Christmas tree
I got addicted to pain before I could do my crying in the rain
I got a kick out of rape, abuse, misinterpretation, female castration, gentle mutilation, automatisation, lost in translation
Ritalin was not on the kiddie’s shelf in my days of thunder
I was a happy child with a banana and a book
and a past prayer for world peace got me off the hook
I got my feet covered in globetrotter’s blisters
I live my life the sunny side up
I even tried a cohimbra rolled on the thighs of my sista
I was addicted to conflict
I wished for a surgeon general pointing the way
But learning about warfare only brought me to hell’s gate
Healer says we need to look on the inside
To explore the bare facts of our human mistakes
To reveal the naked truth, inconvenient or not
Mistakes cannot be made undone
Long lost world wars can never be won
Children are waiting for joy to open our hearts
So that love and respect will once and for all
rule this manmade industrial joke
