More of the "old" folks knew than I thought they did
Oh the secrets that the grandparents hid
Some aunts and uncles too
Glendon H
Yeah some of them knew
Lizards and Chances calling you
What is that they fear?
Wasting time on a prayer
People and things disappear
Whispers and voices from the time I could crawl
Prodigy
I fooled them all
Yes I did
All the bull they carefully hid
They never saw what came to me
I never told
Never made a sound
Not a soul when...
That entrance I found
Past, present and future underground
Yes I fooled them all
Bells in the schoolyard
They never heard, my "ship" call
Played their game and solved a mystery
Suckers!
The "bees" never worked on me
Sixty-six is my lucky number
Mahogany brown
Guess my color...
Older than anyone...
Salivating as the natives come
Arawaks, Caribs, European, African
It's all the same to you
Lost to some, not to those who had the clue
Nothing escapes, aint that true?
Oh Island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
They never got the yellow out of
your "ęglęca" son
Dreams on the wind
There are ways to get in
Powdered dirt
White as snow
At the bottom and the top of a hill you go
Silence on the wind
Can you hear a merewif sing
Followed a white cat
Into the Ghaut
and...
Guess what?
Brainwashed by the "Good Book"
Heaven in sky
Hell underground
I never told
Never made a sound
Legends and Myths so tall
Prodigy
I fooled them all
Dreams on the wind...
How many more before you're done?
Alliouagana
In The Sun
Perhaps not the conventional way
But we will
Go back someday...
Prodigy
