Feed them with hunger
Feed them with greed
Know it’s a stunner
Echoing cheat
Amazing Amazon
Will please you and tease you
Erase and delete
Up goes the money
Down to the beat
Everything looks sunny
At this side of the street
Beat them with hunger
beat them with greed
Know it’s a stunner
Echoing cheat
Amazing Amazon
Will cease you increase you
Default and defeat
Down go the wages
Up to the beat
Everything looks funny
At the heart of Wall Street

One hand stirs the soup
The other bandages a scraped knee
The third holds the telephone
And the fourth turns up the volume
One the radio
To catch the news
We attended parlor meetings
After the children were fed and put to bed
After we had hung the laundry and washed the dishes
We had a large assembly at the Jerusalem hall
Everyone applauded the beautiful speeches
And drove home
But we stayed on the dangerous roads
And went on having
More babies
Carefully monitoring
High risk pregnancies
And tending husbands
With flue
One hand stirs the soup
The other bandages a scraped knee
The third holds the telephone
And the fourth turns up the volume
One the radio
To catch
New sounds
lyrics Tamar El-Or and Gideon Aran

They say that man is mighty,
He governs land and sea,
He wields a mighty spectre,
O'er lesser powers that be,
But a mightier power and stronger,
Man from his throne has hurled,
For the hand that rocks the cradle,
Is the hand that rocks the world. –

Our only hunger is the food
If we obey Free Markets mood
It’s constant care is not to feed
But to make money of our greed
Our only hunger is the food
If we obey Free Markets mood
It’s constant care is not to feed
But to make money
Of what we eat

Shame on us
Not to see us
Overwhelmed by too many papers
Not to see them
Without
No man’s land
In a so called free land
If their only way out
Is to conquer hearts
Of wellfared women
How do you think their perception
Of love
Is molded
Again and again
Obliged to lie
Not able to greet
Their dying mothers

SAND AND SEEDS
Finding seeds for our way back home Those seeds that once where promising and bright
As light opening wide
As a babysent so sweet
Sand and seeds for our way back from home Finding seeds for our way back, back home Wish you where there by my side my child
Your eyes that once looked promising and bright As light opening white
Growing seeds for our new way, way home Growing seeds , promising and bright
As light opening wide
Through a small split of those prison doors
As raindrops in springtime.
Growing seeds for our new way, way home For our new life, free life back home.

SILENCE RAMPAGE
When you raise your rage In a silent rampage
There’s no bird to sing There’s no soul to cling There’s that world outside With its strange fits of light Showing nothing
That’s wrong or right Swept with the crowd You swamp about
When you raise your rage In a silent rampage There’s no bird to cheep There’s no soul to squeak There’s that world outside
With its strange fits of light Showing nothing
That’s wrong or right Got no loin to eat No bitcoin to cheat
Just a final tweet
Push the repeat
Of a love of your own You’ll stick alone Alone
You’ll stick alone
To that bone
