Gonna to send a message to Zion
A message to Zion
I sent a letter to Zion
Address unknown.
Long distance phone call to Zion
No one home.
A letter to Zion
A letter to Zion

I don't want to go
It's not my life, I won't put on a show
Rasta machine, I know the words, I don't know what they mean.

There is a circus in Zion
I'm a clown.
They won't desert us in Zion
Don't let me down.
I am a soldier of Zion
I need a shoulder to cry on.
A message to Zion
A message to Zion

I don't want to go
It's not my life I won't put on a show
Rasta machine I know enough not to know what they mean.
