peter gabriel - biko (live) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
september ’77
port elizabeth weather fine
it was business as usual
in police room 619

[chorus]
oh biko, biko, because biko
oh biko, biko, because biko
yihla moja, yihla moja
the man is dead
the man is dead

[interlude]

[verse 2]
when i try and sleep at night
i can only dream in red
the outside world is black and white
with only one colour dead

[chorus]
oh biko, biko, because biko
oh biko, biko, because biko
yihla moja, yihla moja
the man is dead
the man is dead

[interlude]

[verse 3]
you can blow out a candle
but you can’t blow out a fire
once the flames begin to catch
the wind will blow it higher

[chorus]
oh biko, biko, because biko
oh biko, biko, because biko
yihla moja, yihla moja
the man is dead
the man is dead

[post+chorus]
and the eyes of the world are
watching now, watching now
