Alun Parry: The Fruits of Apartheid
New Song: The Fruits of Apartheid
Lyrics
The things you have grown with stolen water
Are rotting are rotting are rotting away
For we will not purchase the fruits of apartheid
They’re rotting, they’re rotting, they’re rotting
They’re rotting, they’re rotting away
Imagine the green in these fields so fallow
Imagine the life flooding back to the land
Imagine the harvest being gathered a-plenty
Imagine the water-taps turning at thirst’s sweet command
Each barren acre and well that runs dry
Has our attention, we will not pass by
So the…
Things you have grown with stolen water
Are rotting are rotting are rotting away
For we will not purchase the fruits of apartheid
They’re rotting, they’re rotting, they’re rotting
They’re rotting, they’re rotting away
Imagine the sound of the skies filled with birdsong
Imagine the children where soldiers once stood
Imagine two peoples united in friendship
With all subjugation
Forever behind them
Apartheid discarded for good
Each stone in your wall and each word in your lie
We see beyond, and we will not stand by
So the…
Things you have grown with stolen water
Are rotting are rotting are rotting away
For we will not purchase the fruits of apartheid
They’re rotting, they’re rotting, they’re rotting
They’re rotting, they’re rotting away
