SKYND – Jim Jones lyrics

Come with camaraderie
In harmony
One big community
Utopian society
Come with equality
No boundaries
Human economy
And did I say no boundaries

Come, come to God
Come to the Temple, come, come
Come, come to God
We shall overcome some day
Come to God
Come to the Temple, come, come
Come, come to God
Suicide Sunday

Hey Dad, thanks Dad
Hurry sisters, hurry
It's all over, all over
Hurry children, hurry
White knight, drink
Flavour-Aid cyanide
Lay down your life
Lay down your life, yeah

Get up, get up
Get up and lay down your life
Drink it, drink it
Drink it up the flavoured cyanide
Get up, get up,
Get up and lay down your life
Lay down your life
Lay down your life, yeah

Get up, get up
Get up, get up, get up
Drink it, drink it,
Drink it, drink it, drink it
Hurry, hurry
Hurry, hurry, hurry
Lay down your life
Lay down your life, yeah
(x2)

The edge of paradise
Seems very nice
And then the sweetest vice
Selling monkeys, (?) junkie
Religious holy world
No mind control
No one can leave, I told you
Holy ground at my control

Come, come to God
Come to the Temple, come, come
Come, come to God
We shall overcome some day
Come to God
Come to the Temple, come, come
Come, come to God
Suicide Sunday

Get up, get up
Get up and lay down your life
Drink it, drink it
Drink it up the flavoured cyanide
Get up, get up,
Get up and lay down your life
Lay down your life
Lay down your life, yeah

Hey Dad, thanks Dad
Hurry sisters, hurry
It's all over, all over
Hurry children, hurry
White knight, drink
Flavour-Aid cyanide
Lay down your life
Lay down your life, yeah

Get up, get up
Get up, get up, get up
Drink it, drink it,
Drink it, drink it, drink it
Hurry, hurry
Hurry, hurry, hurry
Lay down your life
Lay down your life, yeah
(x2)

909 souls, don't do this
909 no, no more pain now
909 souls, it's easy
I'm going to take on all your battles
(x2)

Hey Dad, thanks Dad
Hurry sisters, hurry
It's all over, all over
Hurry children, hurry
White knight, drink
Flavour-Aid cyanide
Lay down your life
Lay down your life, yeah

Come, come to God
Come to the Temple, come, come
Come, come to God
We shall overcome some day
Come to God
Come to the Temple, come, come
Come
Lay down your life
Lay down your life, yeah
(x2)
