Let Your Body Learn (Lyrics)
Fast beat the feet
Fast fall the hands
Fast beat the feet
Fast fall the hands
Meld in the music
The music of drums
Meld in the music
The music of drums
Choose the fast beat
Choose the hard line
Choose the fast beat
Choose the hard line
Try to show us one better
Not sick to the heart
Not calling with flesh
Suffer little children
Suffer little children
Suffer little children
Written in pain
Boys at one
Girls at peace
Boys at one
Girls at peace
Boys at one
Girls at peace
Boys at one
Girls at peace
Fast beat the feet
Fast fall the hands
Fast beat the feet
Fast fall the hands
Hold onto rhythm
The music of drums
Hold onto rhythm
The music of drums
The pulse is alive
Making me sane
Let your body learn
Let your body build
Let your body learn
Let your body build
Suffer little children
Suffer little children
Suffer little children
The pulse is alive
Fast beat the feet
Fast fall the hands
Boys at one
Girls at peace
Boys at one
Girls at peace
Boys at one
Girls at peace
Boys at one
Girls at peace
Freedom from fear
Giving release
Freedom from fear
Giving release
Giving release
Giving your heart
Fast beating feet
Fast falling hands

Fast falling hands
Fast beat the feet
Fast fall the hands
