Ice Age Lyrics - Singles - Kaukonen Jorma

Well I heard the news just the other day; 

Now I feel there's something I must say; 

Well the darkness comes too often; 

This time next year I'll build my coffin; 

Made out of lead so X-rays cannot see; 

We gotta be free. 

Political men they burn their lives out talkin'; 

We people of the earth just keep on walkin'; 

Well we don't know what to say; 

Only live our lives as slaves; 

All we can do is race on to the grave; 

Well we gotta get away. 

Well they're much too old to care about the future; 

They're sewing up the past with shining sutures; 

It's immortality they crave; 

Their days are done so now they're brave; 

Their lives will live in books for fools and slaves; 

We gotta get away.
