Ari Told Me

Ari told me about it in the workshop by the riverside
She was trembling in fear slowly saying the words that would define
It was a terrible fly, that came around to beat her up
How could it be, if it measured even less than nine

Ari don't worry, it's just a little fly
The world is sorry, for allowing it to rise

Ari told me that she wants to know it
I don't desire it but it's important
Please be genuine, Ari told me
Why are there men who conquer, kill, ravage, steal, mistreat, repress

So I told her that there are times were people lose their eyes and mind
And they give them to some small man who claims that he's in charge
They're as small as fly, but somehow they still take the prize
Their pretty much dirtier, they cheat and bribe, and think they decide

I said Ari don't worry, tomorrow that fly won't be alive
Just like all those tyrants that in the end die just like rats

Ari told me that she wants to know it
I didn't desire it but now she knows it
Ari told me, oh she told me
One day, they'll be no more frustrated angry men that kill and kill, it won't be long

Ari told me that she wants to know it
I didn't desire it but now she knows it
Ari don't worry, oh Ari don't worry
One day, they'll be no more frustrated angry men that kill and kill, it won't be long
