No No Keshagesh Lyrics

I never saw so many business suits
I never knew a dollar sign could look so cute
I never knew a junkie with a money jones
He's singing, "Who's selling Park Place? Who's buying Boardwalk?"

These old men they make their dirty deals
Go in the back room and see what they can steal
Talk about your beautiful and spacious skies
It's about uranium, it's about the water rights

Put Mother Nature on a luncheon plate
They cut her up and call it real estate
Want all the resources and all of the land
They make a war over it, blow things up for it

The reservation now the poverty row
There's something cooking, and the lights are low
Somebody's is trying to save our Mother Earth

I'm gonna help them to save it
To sing it and bring it

Singing no, no, keshagesh
You can't do that
No more, no more, no more, no more
No-no-no-no keshagesh
You can't do that
No more, no more, no more, no more
No-no-no-no keshagesh
You can't do that
No more, no more, no more, no more
No-no-no-no keshagesh
You can't do that
No more, no more, no more, no more

Ol' Columbus he was looking good
When he got lost in our neighbourhood
Garden of Eden right before his eyes
Now it's all spyware, now it's all income tax

Ol' Brother Midas looking hungry today
What he can't buy he'll get some other way
Send in the troopers if the natives resist
Oh, old story boys, that's how you do it, boys

Look at these people, oh, they're on a roll
Gonna have it have it all, gonna have complete control
Want all the resources and all of the land
They'll break the law for it, blow things up for it

When all our champions are off in the war
Their final rip off here at home is on
Mr. Greed I think your time has come

We're gonna sing it and pray it
And live it then say it

Singing no, no, keshagesh
You can't do that
No more, no more, no more, no more
No-no-no-no keshagesh
You can't do that
No more, no more, no more, no more
No-no-no-no keshagesh
You can't do that
No more, no more, no more, no more
No-no-no-no keshagesh
You can't do that
No more, no more, no more, no more
