RUN TO THE HILLS

(Harris)

 

White man came across the sea, brought us pain and misery

Killed our tribes killed our creed, took our game for his own need

 

We fought him hard we fought him well, out on the plains we gave him hell

But many came too much for Cree, oh will we ever be set free?

 
Riding through dustclouds and barren wastes, galloping hard on the plains
Chasing the redskins back to their holes, fighting them at their own game
Murder for freedom the stab in the back, women and children and cowards attack
 
Run to the hills, run for your lives
Run to the hills, run for your lives
 
Soldier blue in the barren wastes, hunting and killing their game
Raping the women and wasting the men, the only good Indians are tame
Selling them whiskey and taking their gold, enslaving the young and destroying the old
 
Run to the hills, run for your lives
Run to the hills, run for your lives
 
Run to the hills, run for your lives
Run to the hills, run for your lives

PHANTOM OF THE OPERA

(Harris)

 

I've been looking so long for you now, you won't get away from my grasp

You've been living so long in hiding, hiding behind that false mask

 

You know and I know that you ain't got that long to last

Your looks and your feelings are just the remains of your past

 

Standing in the wings there, you wait for the curtain to fall

Knowing the terror and holding you have on us all

 
I know that you're going to scratch me and maim me and maul
You know I'm helpless from your mesmerising cat call
 
Keep your distance walk away don't take his bait, don't you stray don't fade away
 
Watch your step he's out to get you come what may, Don't you stray from the narrow way
 
I'm running and hiding, in my dreams you're always there
You're the Phantom of the Opera, you're the devil you're just out to scare
 
You damaged my mind and my soul, it just floats through the air
You haunt me you taunt me, you torture me back at your lair
