They want it all... Yes. They really do want it all For centuries long past When seasons change fast Minutes draw nearer And change into hour They have yearned for some power What do they desire Who knows what women require Men of fame this is uncanny And never to be seen as funny When women have always wanted men to surpass They somehow fail to pass Then they wail "Why should we fail" But the answer with the wind does sail As men carry the blame And women take the shame...

As the winds blow From the north Through to the south- Making freshness flow And without rest To East and then West They seem to say Along their way "My maker, the best"

O waters for free The deserts do thirst for thee Surge to quench their needs

As I hear The sound of the drums Making their way through the farms Rumbling, shaking and breaking the grounds.. I know I'm somewhere to be found
