Curi Curi

Curi Curi - Milton Nascimento/River Phoenix

When all our jungle friends sleep

Work against stream against them

So when they wake they're damned like the river

Mother's blood line until we have completel

Stripped them of their song

Dance prayer and language

Then we palce it with ours

How do we say "Oh so sorry Let us explain

You must know this is the real world

It's good business demolition it's progress development

My pocketbook evolution's sake "

You see they don't need our language to know

We've sold them down the river

And franchised our own souls

Listen
