DAVID AND GOLIATH (HAVE YOU EVER?)
(c) Lyrics: Dominic McPolin
(c) Music: Cyrus Dali Vesuvala
V-1
Have you ever-
Have you ever seen what a bullet does to a child?
Have you ever-
Have you ever seen a mad man running wild?
No cause of man or state
Can justify this hate
Have you ever...?
V-2
Have you ever-
Have you ever seen David with a stone in his hand?
Have you ever-
Have you ever seen him face Goliath in the Promised Land?
You talk of measured response
But I just can't work the math
Have you ever...?
Chorus:
Call upon your people
Call upon your soul
Talk show culture can't understand
The pain of these people
Divided yet whole
Till I put a bloody ribbon in your hand
V-3
Have you ever-
Have you ever seen a million dollar bomb at a poor man's door?
Have you ever-
Have you ever washed the blood off a nursery floor?
Your message is well sent
Written in the blood of the innocent
Have you ever...?
V-4
Have you ever-
Have you ever seen the fathers carry out their dead?
Did they ever-
Did they ever look like rag dolls dressed in red
Their bodies broken and bruised
Mother and child abused
Have you ever...?
Chorus:
Call upon your people
Call upon your soul
Talk show culture can't understand
The pain of a people
Divided yet whole
Till I put a bloody ribbon in your hand
V-5
Have you ever-
Have you ever heard the children of Gaza cry?
Did you ever-
Did you ever think your taxes go to help them die?
You know who is to blame
You turned a blind eye to this game
Have you ever...?
Chorus:
Call upon your people
Call upon your soul
Talk show culture can't understand
The pain of a people
Divided yet whole
Till I put a bloody ribbon in your hand
Outro:
One in three was under ten
One in three under ten
One in three was under ten
No casualties of army or men
No cause of man or state
Can justify this hate
Before it gets too late:
Did you ever...?
