Tracy Chapman "Material world" lyrics

Translation to:dees

Material world

You in your fancyMaterial worldDon't see the links of chainBinding blood

Our own ancestorsAre hungry ghostsClosets so full of bonesThey won't close

Call it upward mobilityBut you've been sold down the riverJust another form of slaveryAnd the whole man-made white worldIs your master

You in your fancyMaterial worldCreate in your own imageA supreme god

Your virgin maryYour holy ghostsClaimed to be pure of heartHave hands that are stained with blood

You in your fancyMaterial worldDon't see the links of chainBinding
