JONESTOWN LOVE SONG

Nothing to say
We went away without a commotion
What a sad day
Saying goodbye to faith and devotion

He knew it all along
Love only lasts so long
Saying goodbye to Dad
He took everything we had

Remember the day
We first arrived at Jonestown Guyana
Happy to say
We were all free from Americana

But then when Jim arrived
Gradually our joy died
It became a slave labor camp
For hours we’d here Jim rant

I’ll make you love me
Give me all your money
And I’ll make you feel guilty
Make you paranoid and rape your wife
And for me you will give you life

Then came the day
Congressman Ryan came with a film crew
Some had complained
They told the press the bad stuff
That you’d do

“We must all die
Hurry
We must die with dignity
Cool aid’s not painful
It’s like taking a drink to sleep
That’s what death is
It’s just sleep”
