Attica State Lyrics - Singles - Yoko Ono

What a waste of human power 

What a waste of human lives 

Shoot the prisoners in the towers 

Forty-three poor widowed wives 

Attica, Attica State 

We're all mates with Attica State 

Media blames it on the prisoners 

But the prisoners did not kill 

Rockefeller pulled the trigger 

That is what the people feel 

Attica State, Attica State 

We're all mates with Attica State 

Free the prisoners, jail the judges 

Free all prisoners everywhere 

All they want is truth and justice 

All they need is love and care 

Attica State, Attica State 

We're all mates with Attica State 

They all live in suffocation 

Let's not watch them die in sorrow 

Now's the time for revolution 

Give them all a chance to grow 

Attica State, Attica State 

We're all mates with Attica State 

Come together join the movement 

Take a stand for human rights 

Fear and hatred clouds our judgment 

Free us all from endless night 

Attica State, Attica State 

We're all mates with Attica State 

Attica State, Attica State 

We all live in Attica State 

Attica State, Attica State 

Attica, Attica, Attica State
