Pa'lante （Explicit）-Hurray for the Riff Raff

Oh I just want to go to work

And get back home

And be something

I just want to fall in line

Do my time

And be something

Well I just want to prove my worth

On the planet earth

And be something

I just want to fall in love

Not f**k it up

And feel something

Lately

Don't understand what I am

Treated as a fool

Not quite a woman or a man

Well I don't know

Guess I don't understand the plan

Colonise

And hyponotise

Be something

Steralised de humanised

Be something

Well take your pick

And stay out the way

Be something

Ah do your best

But f**k the rest

Be something

Ah lately

It's been mighty hard to see

Just searching for

My lost humanity

I look for you

My friend but do you look for me

Lately I'm not too afraid to die

I want to leave it all behind

I think about sometimes

Lately all my times been moving slow

I don't know where I'm going to go

Just give me time I'll know

Oh any day now

Oh any day now

I will come along

Oh any day now

Oh any day now

I will come along

I will come along

From el barrio

To Arecibo

Pa'lante

From marble hill

To the ghost of Emmett Till

Pa'lante

To Juan

Miguel

Milagros manuel

Pa'lante

To all who came

Before we say

Pa'lante

To my mother

And my father I say

Pa'lante

To Julia

And Sylvia

Pa'lante

To all who had to hide

I say Pa'lante

To all who lost their pride

I say Pa'lante

To all who had to survive

I say Pa'lante

To my brothers and my sisters I say

Pa'lante

Pa'lante

Pa'lante

To all

Oh came

Before we say

Pa'lant
