Paul Austin Kelly - Beast Lyrics
You beast, youBe kind to the animalsListen up, matesCause I can't say it twiceYou'll learn that life has two sidesNasty and nice.You've got a mother's loveMakes you feel safe and warmAnd a beast that comes a-creepingTrying to do you harm.This beast can hurt your bodyOr it can hurt your mindIt can cause others to hurt youOr make you unkind.This ain't no PC gameThis ain't no arcade shotThis beast it keeps on growing strongerWith each gun you got.You've got to bring the light of loveDown out of the skyThen lock the beast inside the lightBid it a fine good-bye.You must be kind to the children of creation.Hey, listen up children!Hear what I got to sayYou got plans to make.Minds to shakeStarting today.You're the world's only hopeAnd a price'll be paidIt's a weight to lay on you, I knowBut it's got to be laidCause the beast'll distract youWith tinsel and toysAnd it misdirects youWith hi-fi noiseSleight of hand, smoke and mirrorsHot babes and hard boysBut it's still just a lousy beastWith a shell game ploy.Dig deepFind the love inside your heart.This beast could try to make youWant to wage a war,Lead you to a blood bathAftermath guts and gore.American lifestyle needs protectingFrom the folks next door, it saysSo blindly follow, swallow, wallowTill you're sore.It's got allies in the country,In the valleys, on the seaIn the air and undergroundIn the West and in the EastIn the very levels of realityYour soul is it's feastIt's the Rich man, Poor manBeggar man, Beast.Your very future is a doorwayOh, so tall and stoutBut only you can determineWhat comes in or goes out.Be kind to humanityBe good to your brothersBe good to your sistersLove one anotherLove one anotherLove one another.
