Renegades of this atomic age

This atomic age for renegades
|
Renegades of this atomic age
|
This atomic age for renegades
|
Prehistoric ages and the days of ancient Greece
|
On down through the Middle Ages
|
When the earth kept going through changes
|
There’s a business going on, cars continue to change
|
Nothing stays the same, there were always renegades
|
Like Chief Sitting Bull, Tom Payne
|
Like Martin Luther King, Malcom X They were renegades of the atomic age
|
So many renegades
|
Hand clap, hand clap, the renegades
|
From a different solar system many many galaxies away
|
We are the force of another creation
|
A new musical revelation
|
And we’re on this musical message to help the others listen
|
Improve momentum and seek the electonic chance
|
Like astrology
|
Like technology
|
Like God’s Creation
|
Like the Zulu station
|
Like to the nation
|
Like destroy all nations
|
Like militants
|
Like down in sand
|
Like through changes, nothing stays the same
|
Oh renegades
|
Now renegades are people with their own philosophy
|
They change the course of history
|
Everyday people like you and me You know they have their secret notions
|
And time is endless motion
|
All people of the moderate ages here in this twentieth century
|
You have to keep up in time with the moderate time
|
A state of mind and a sense of pride
|
A renegade, yes a renegade
|
Of this time and age

|
We’re teachers of the funk
|
And not of empty popping
|
We’re blessed with the Force and the sight of electronics
|
With the bass, and the treble
|
The horns and our vocals
|
You know everytime we pop into the beat we get fresh
|
There was a time when our music
|
Was something called the Bay Street beat
|
People would gather from all around
|
To get down on the Bay sound
|
You had to be a renegade those days
|
To take a man on the dance floor
|
Like Afrika Bambattaa and the Soulsonic Force
|
We’re talking about Mr. B, Pow Wow, G-L-O-B-E
|
Was a renegade, yes, a renegade of the atomic age
|
So many renegades
