SHE CAME WITH FRUIT ANDFLOWERS

Recorded on LLGÕs ÒTIME SPACE& LLGÓ LP
She came with fruit andflowers
With a twinkle in her eyes,
She said she was glad to seeme,
Truly glad that I'd survived,
She does not read the papers,
She does not watch the news,
If she listens to anybroadcast
She really gets confused.
A spoonful of injustice
An ounce of stolen jam,
A pound of pain keeps yougoing
As it grinds you down
Oh! but it's good to knowwhat's happening
Just take your medicine,
No need to worry about ahome,
There are always streets orslums,
As she left, she kissed mycheek,
And told me to keep onsmiling
This is just another steppingstone
To the land we can rely on.
