Lyrics

AKES A MAN OR A WOMAN --- by ----- John W Townsend



IT TAKES A MAN OR A WOMAN
TO STAND UP
TELL THE TRUTH
EVEN IN THE FACE OF
VILE ABUSE.

THEY HAVE NO MOTIVE
OF WHATS IN IT FOR ME
THEY SPEAK UP
AGAINST
HYPOCRISY

THEY HAVE TO BE
STRONG
TO SAVE THEIR LIVES
FROM HYPOCRITICAL MEN
MOCK AND DERIDE

chorus

IT TAKES A MAN
OR A WOMAN
TO STAND UP TALL
SPEAK TRUTH
AGAINST THAT
OPPOSISTION WALL
TO FACE THE POLITICIAN
THE MAN OF CLOTH
ASK THEM DO YOU KNOW
ANYTHING

ABOUT-------- GOD

----------

THEY BETTER
RUN WHILE THEY CAN
FASTER THAN THEY CAN FLY
THEIR DAYS ARE COMING
THEY SURE CANNOT HIDE

THE CROOKED ONES THINK
THE'RY IMMUNE
BURY THEIR TREASURES
IN SOME
OFF SHORE TOMB

HYPOCRITS
THATS WHAT THEY ARE
IN EVERY WAY
SAYING ALOUD
DON'T DO AS I DO
DO AS I SAY.
------
chorus

IT TAKES A MAN
OR A WOMAN
TO STAND UP TALL
SPEAK TRUTH
AGAINST THAT
OPPOSISTION WALL
TO FACE THE POLITICIAN
THE MAN OF CLOTH
ASK THEM DO YOU KNOW
ANYTHING

ABOUT-------- GOD

backing singers chanting YOU GOTTA STAND TALL YOU YOU YOU
YOU GOTTA STAND TALL YOU YOU YOU

IT TAKES A MAN
OR A WOMAN
TO STAND UP TALL
SPEAK TRUTH
AGAINST A
MIGHTY WALL
TO FACE THE POLITICIAN
THE MAN OF CLOTH
ASK THEM DO YOU KNOW
ANYTHING

ABOUT-------- GOD

-------------
DAYS ARE COMING
HYPOCRITES
WILL BE GONE
NO MOUTAIN WILL HIDE THEM
UNDER GODS SUN

THEIR UTTERED WORDS
IN THE NAME OF GOD
ARE NOTHING TO DO
WITH
GOD ABOVE

MILLIONS DEAD
IN THE LAST
CENTURIES WARS
VICTIMS OF LIES
THE POLITICIANS
AND THE MAN OF CLOTH


----------
chorus

IT TAKES A MAN
OR A WOMAN
TO STAND UP TALL
SPEAK TRUTH
AGAINST A
MIGHTY WALL
TO FACE THE POLITICIAN
THE MAN OF CLOTH
ASK THEM DO YOU KNOW
ANYTHING

ABOUT-------- GOD

------

YOU THINK YOUR BLESSED
RICH OR ROYAL
MAYBE POWERFUL
WITH YOUR WEAPONS
AND YOUR NUCLEAR ARSENAL

IF YOU LIVE BY THE SWORD
THATS WHERE YOU'LL DIE
THOSE HYPOCRITES
WHO FOR CENTURIES
SPOKE LIES LIES LIES

THEY HAVE NO CLUE
WHO IS THEIR BROTHER
NOT THE POLITICIAN
OR THE MAN OF CLOTH
CANNOT TRUST
EVEN ONE ANOTHER
--------
