GMO GMO has got to go
Power in the blood Power in the blood
No time for spin-doctors’ medicine
Corporation government selling me some cover-up
Weaponizing pesticides; poison in my groceries
Nothing but another drug, a license they can buy and sell
I don’t mind dying
Well I don’t mind dying
I don’t mind dying
But when that call it comes I will say no no no to war
No time for backhanded compliments
From television anchor men desperate for an incident
Real estate assassins exploiting our predicament
Everything depends upon it being in their interests
No I don’t mind dying
I don’t mind dying
I don’t mind dying
When that call it comes, I will say no no no to war
There is power in the blood, justice in the soul
When that call it comes, I will say no no no to war
Power in the blood, justice in the soul
When that call it comes I will say no no no to war
There’s military interest, GMOs in paradise
bio-weapons high up on the call sheet
Young soldiers driving tanks
but old thieves they drive the banks
and you never see a uniform on Wall Street
There is power in the blood
I don’t mind dying
I don’t mind the dying
I don’t mind dying
When that call it comes I will say no no no to war
Power in the blood Power in the blood
No time for spin-doctors’ medicine
Corporation government selling me some cover-up
Weaponizing pesticides; poison in my groceries
Nothing but another drug, a license they can buy and sell
I don’t mind dying
Well I don’t mind dying
I don’t mind dying
But when that call it comes I will say no no no to war
No time for backhanded compliments
From television anchor men desperate for an incident
Real estate assassins exploiting our predicament
Everything depends upon it being in their interests
No I don’t mind dying
I don’t mind dying
I don’t mind dying
When that call it comes, I will say no no no to war
There is power in the blood, justice in the soul
When that call it comes, I will say no no no to war
Power in the blood, justice in the soul
When that call it comes I will say no no no to war
There’s military interest, GMOs in paradise
bio-weapons high up on the call sheet
Young soldiers driving tanks
but old thieves they drive the banks
and you never see a uniform on Wall Street
There is power in the blood
I don’t mind dying
I don’t mind the dying
I don’t mind dying
When that call it comes I will say no no no to war

Nuove parole/New Lyrics: Buffy Sainte Marie (2015)
Album: Power In The Blood
Conosciuta come cantante folk, protagonista del folk revival degli anni '60, fiera e autentica voce dei nativi americani, Buffy Sainte Marie si avventura a più di settant'anni in sonorità che fanno pensare più a Bjork che a Joan Baez. Nella title track dell'album riscrive le parole di un classico della musica elettronica trasformandolo in una potente canzone contro la guerra (che nella prima strofa si scaglia anche contro gli OGM).
I wrote new words to the Alabama3 classic, and they lent me samples from their original recording. I re-wrote some of the words, turned it into an anti-war song. Strange: we seem so different musically and personally, but we’re mutual fans and I love the cross-pollination in the song.
