Bodyguard 2022

Bonus track from Living in Reality - a cover/reimagining of the classic reggae song by Steel Pulse.

Lyrics:

Every time you meet the public
You get scared and you start to panic

Who made a post?
And who aired a show?
And who's not a clone?
Who's coming for your throne?

So-called leaders, with deceitful faces
Corruption in the highest places
Your hands full of bribes
Mouth pours out lies
Cause of all oppression now
Running for protection

Bodyguard I wouldn't like your job
Snakes in the grass and they think they're God
Politicians drinking human blood
Concrete heart can hold no love
I just can't stand your little bodyguards
Just can't stand your little bodyguards

Big Tech and the press keeps you protected
Although all their stories don't add up

Cuz you got the guns
And you got the bomb
You got the jets
You are the terrorist

Bodyguard I wouldn't like your job
Snakes in the grass and they think they're God
Politicians drinking human blood
Concrete heart can hold no love
Bodyguard I wouldn't like your job
Snakes in the grass and they think they're God
Politicians drinking human blood
Concrete heart can hold no love

Hey hey don't feel no way
I just can't stand your little bodyguards
Are we staying home?
Are we saying no?
Are we standing by
Or are we standing for our rights?

Bodyguard I wouldn't like your job
Snakes in the grass and they fear no god
Politicians drinking human blood
Concrete heart can hold no love
Bodyguard I wouldn't like your job
Snakes in the grass, they hate your god
Politicians drinking human blood
Concrete heart can hold no love

Puppet president
(You - are the terrorist)
Global government
(You - look like Satanists)
Hand-picked apparatchiks,
(You - are all communists)
I just can't stand your little bodyguards

All that fretting
All that sweatin'
All that threatenin'
to take our weapons
All that stoking
Fires of hatred
All these bastards
Are illegitimate
