Ain't That Tellin' You People Songtext
von The Original Caste

There′s a million smokey faces
And a million starvin' faces
And a disillusioned preacher
With an empty head
There′s a hold baby cryin'
And a young man somewhere dyin'
But we just can′t hear them callin′
Above the band

Ain't that tellin′ you people
That the whole world needs a changing
Ain't that tellin′ you people
That we dig and plough
Ain't that showin′ you brother
That your life needs re-arranging
Ain't that tellin' us all
That we better start right now


There′s a school that′s done some burning
Gotta put an end to learning
While the politician's talking
To an empty room
And the only kind of thunder
Is the kind we′re living under
As we sweep away the future
With a ten cent broom

Ain't that tellin′ you people
That the whole world needs a changing
Ain't that tellin′ you people
That we dig and plough
Ain't that showin' you brother
That your life needs re-arranging
Ain′t that tellin′ us all
That we better start right now

Cause there's no time to be wasted
There′s a good life to be tasted
If we tie ourselves together
In a chain of love


Ain't that tellin′ you people
That the whole world needs a changing
Ain't that tellin′ you people
That we dig and plough
Ain't that showin' you brother
That your life needs re-arranging
Ain′t that tellin′ us all
That we better start right now.
