[00:14.31] i listen to the words that whisper in my ear
[00:21.00] i've heard the words of anger,
[00:23.56] i know the words of fear
[00:29.06] but are whispered in the shadows,
[00:31.87] the only word of freedom
[00:37.75] anti-apartheid is all that i hear
[00:46.88]
[00:52.06] to separate the colours and break the rainbow sign
[00:58.88] to ask the finest painter to draw a crooked line
[01:06.81] will only slow the journey to here again another time
[01:13.59]
[01:16.71] anti-apartheid is all that's on my mind
[01:25.40]
[01:31.21] i cannot bear to think of people cast aside
[01:37.78] i fail to see the reason why of colour you must hide
[01:45.78] and why of freedom
[01:47.65] can't you sing a song to change the rushing tide
[01:55.47]
[01:56.15] anti-apartheid is what you must decide
[02:06.78]
[02:19.09] anti-apartheid is what you must decide
[02:27.14]
[02:28.01] now 50 years of science has brought us to the moon
[02:34.53] yet of 50 years of talking of freedom coming soon
[02:42.41] has taught us nothing but to split and segregate a room
[02:51.60] anti-apartheid is a hope of freedom soon
[03:05.91] if men were of one colour how silly life would be
[03:13.66] a regimented army to work a factory
[03:20.97] that produces daily a gift of boredom given free
[03:32.60] anti-apartheid is what it's meant to be
