Human beings will be happier - not when they cure cancer or get to Mars or eliminate racial prejudice or flush Lake Erie but when they find ways to inhabit primitive communities again. That's my utopia.

Anti War Songs
Bold Marauder
By Richard Farina
It's hi, ho, hey,
I am the bold marauder.
And hi, ho, hey,
I am the white destroyer.
For I will bring you silver and gold
And I will bring you treasure
And I will bring a widowing flag
And I will be your lover
And I will show you grotto and cave
And sacrificial altar
And I will show you blood on the stone
And I will be your mentor
And night will be our darling
And fear will be our name
It's hi, ho, hey,
I am the bold marauder.
And hi, ho, hey,
I am the white destroyer.
For I will take you out by the hand
And lead you to the hunter
And I will show you thunder and steel
And I will be your teacher
And we will dress in helmet and sword
And dip our tongues in slaughter
And we will sing a warrior’s song
And lift the praise of murder
And Christ will be our darling
And fear will be our name
It's hi, ho, hey,
I am the bold marauder.
And hi, ho, hey,
I am the white destroyer.
For I will sour the winds on high
And I will soil the river
And I will burn the grain in the field
And I will be your mother
And I will go to ravage and kill
And I will go to plunder
And I will take a fury to wife
And I will be your father
And death will be our darling
And fear will be our name posted by Cyndy | link |
