Sam Signaoff - Blue Duck Fly To North Country Lyrics
Blue duck fly to north countryProphets for profit keep on comin’Where can one draw the lineTo listenSociety has spokenWe’ve all been buying our tokensTo take a slow ride on a brand new trainTo nowhereYou’re on the left and he’s on the rightYou call each other “pig” and then you get up tightWhile all this is going on, the planets they are changingWhile you call each other “pig”There’s little time remainingBlue duck fly to north countryProphets for profit keep on comin’Where can one draw the lineTo listenTell me about your poor blind boyHow the City Fathers all watched in joyAs he blew his nose on our “Dear Old Glory”And then they shot him down‘cause he didn’t have the license to seeBlue duck fly to north countryProphets for profit keep on comingWhere does one draw the lineTo listenBlack man hunched down, make like a muleNever be free and you can’t go to schoolYou’re black, so how come you ain’t crawlingHey boy, don’t you dare look at me when you hear me talking.Blue duck fly to north countryProphets for profit keep on comin’Where does one draw the lineTo listenEverything is formulatedOur existence has been createdTo attain a fleeting glimpse of disorderIn order to understand, you destroyIn order to create, you destroy,‘cause in order to think, one cell destroys the otherYes, in order for you to exist, you go and shoot down your brothersBlue duck fly to north countryProphets for profit keep on comin’Where does one draw the lineTo listenBut to be here ‘cause you’re nearAnd to be there ‘cause you wereThough the icebergs fall onto the citiesAnd though the seas take leave to move upon the countries –Blue duck fly to north countryBut before you go, come and tell me– So we can sing with youTo a new song
