Too Many Chiefs (Not Enough Indians)
In the sun he hides from you
'Cause you smile and then tell him lies
But the boy, he always knew
That they'd choke upon his pride
As their greed, it eats the sand
Turns to stone all that lives
All he builds is made by hand
And the love he always gives
When they look into his eyes
Why can't they let him be?
And he knows they're not that blind
They just choose not to see
Only knows what's in his heart
So he never speaks his mind
Says his prayers and tries so hard
And the Lord says give it time
When they look into his eyes
Why can't they let him be?
And he knows they're not that blind
They just choose not to see
'Cause you smile and then tell him lies
But the boy, he always knew
That they'd choke upon his pride
As their greed, it eats the sand
Turns to stone all that lives
All he builds is made by hand
And the love he always gives
When they look into his eyes
Why can't they let him be?
And he knows they're not that blind
They just choose not to see
Only knows what's in his heart
So he never speaks his mind
Says his prayers and tries so hard
And the Lord says give it time
When they look into his eyes
Why can't they let him be?
And he knows they're not that blind
They just choose not to see
