Oaxaca (Día de Muertos)

Oaxaca, did you steal my dream?
Oaxaca, where has she been?
Your buildings are all hollowed out
With ghosts who try to testify...
On the day of the dead, my love will rise again
On the day of the dead, my love will find her way
The moment has now passed away
The parade is fuelled with fantasy
Should I search for truth beneath the grave?
Or sweep the streets of destiny?
On the day of the dead, my love will rise again
On the day of the dead, my love will find her way
On the day of the dead, my love will rise again
On the day of the dead, my love will find her way
On the day of the dead, my love will rise again
On the day of the dead, my love will find her way
On the day of the dead, my love will rise again
On the day of the dead, my love will find her way…
El día de muertos mi amor renacerá
El día de muertos, encuentra mi amor…
Tu camino...

Death Be Not Proud

Death, be not proud, though the whole world fear you
Mighty and dreadful you may seem
But death, be not proud, for your pride has failed you
You will not kill me¡
Though you may dwell in plague, poison and war
You're a slave to fate and desperate men
So death, if your sleep be the gates to Heaven
Why your confidence?
When you will be no more
Cos even death will die
Death, be not proud
Death, be not pride
Death, be not proud

Salvation

Right now I need salvation….
And if you ever hear this song
Then tell me why did you take so long?
Have you ever tried to sing along
With the birds? Well you know that
No one tells them what to do
Or what to choose…
But right now I need salvation….
And by the time you hear this song
You will have told me why you took so long
And those times we tried to sing along
With the birds? Well you know that
No one told us what to do
Or what to choose…

Joe Ransom Arequipa, Peru
'Get some more red dust on yer boots!'
'Don't be a chicken, be an
eagle!'
'This is goanna country!'
'Ain't no cops on this road to catch you!'
Such wild lyrics as these can be heard on this 9 song alt-punk-country-hip-hop album 'Jakamarra' written by Joe Ransom in the outback NT town of Yuendumu where he was teaching for a year and some.
