Alma Ata (1928)

A man came by this evening

Dancing like a puppet on his strings

He spoke of engineering

It's obvious, he'd never built a thingI had to smile and think a while

I finally shook my head and said

"Men like you can't build your peace"Men like you can't build your peace

Men like you can't build your peaceHis personality, while charming

Still betrayed an air of confidence

Inconsistent with

Criminal political dissentI had to smile and think awhile

I finally shook my head and said

"Men like you can't fake your peace"Men like you can't fake your peace

Men like you can't fake your peaceA man came by this evening

We spoke about my future in this place

He asked if the party

And the opposition could ever reconcileI had to smile and think awhile

I finally shook my head and said

"Men like you can't make your peace"Men like you can't make your peace

Men like you can't make your peace

Men like you can't make your peace
