MOTHER GOOSE (lyrics)

Mother goose, all little ducks belong with you.
Mother goose, nobody takes care the way you do.
All little ducks feel safe with you.

Teach your little babies to cross the street, is what you do.
Teach your little babies to rise to the sky, is what you do, mother goose.
And when there’s danger, you’ll protect them with your life.
Just like an angel you won’t hesitate to fight.

Mother goose, your love is the purest of all that’s true.
Mother goose, mother goose.
And when there’s danger, you’ll protect them with your life.

ANIMALS WILL SURVIVE MANKIND (lyrics)

I can feel what you’re thinking.
You don’t have to say anything.
You think I’m just a dumb animal.
Deprived of my right to be a free animal.
How I’ve prayed for a miracle.
Take a good look at me before you leave.
I’m the artwork that you refused to see.
Imprisoned in a circus, imprisoned in a zoo where you look at me,
but you’ve never wanted to know me.

You don’t see me the way Faya Lobi sees me.
You don’t love me the way Faya Lobi loves me.
You don’t carry me the way Faya Lobi carries me…..
….. to see the light.

I’ve always had to live with the scars you gave me.
But someday I’ll be beautiful and free.
I know Faya Lobi is kind,
because I know I will survive mankind.
We will overcome the humankind.
And I will still be singing my song.
