Song Information:
The post-Live8 podcast prompted this one.
Not my usual thing, and difficult to work on it after the events in London, yesterday. Maybe I'd better write something else, now.
Time will tell.

Song Lyrics:
Roll Up roll up, buyin some time
Ya got Third world debt, be the first in line
Payin' it back's like livin in traction
OPEN YOUR HEART, it's time for Action
Bleed em dry, get what you can
Don't do it for me, you're the man
Work and play it's all distraction
OPEN YOUR HEART, it's time for Action
OPEN HAND, OPEN HEART, OPEN MIND
If you think of what You might find
Does something get in Your way
have You something to Say
OPEN HAND, OPEN HEART, OPEN MIND
"You borrowed money you're payin it back son
Don't think about food, love or medication
you gotta keep payin', you're on the wrack, son.
OPEN YOUR HAND, it's time for Action
Listen to the Radio, watch your TV
Like what you hear? Believe what you see?
Don't know where to get satisfaction?
OPEN YOUR MIND, it's time for Action
OPEN HAND, OPEN HEART, OPEN MIND
If you think of what You might find
Does something get in Your way
have You something to Say
OPEN HAND, OPEN HEART, OPEN MIND
I'm sick to death of this running away
it's nobody's fault so I'll take the blame
I'm calling on every creed and faction
OPEN YOUR HAND, it's time for Action
You say there's nothing to be done
Put an end to that empathy sanction
There's no time for rules and fractions
OPEN YOUR HEART, it's time for Action
OPEN HAND, OPEN HEART, OPEN MIND
If you think of what You might find
Does something get in Your way
have You something to Say
OPEN HAND, OPEN HEART, OPEN MIND
