You all know the story -- how it all began
It took five days - and then came Man
Oh, the land was free; and so were we
No slavery - to lead the poverty
Idle hands... idle hands... idle hands
Then they rose up fast with their greatest schemes
Just killin' stealin' and taxin' using any means;
To disguise injustice - the so-called progress
And deny our people their right to happiness
Idle hands... idle hands... idle hands
Now things get worse with every year; you can't really
live (no, no) when you live in fear
Whatever our efforts - always fail; while the whole world sleeps
Idle hands play
Idle hands... idle hands... idle hands
Now do you have the courage?
Do you have the will?
Do you have the guts, now - to see a dream fulfilled?
Do you wonder why - tell me do you give a damn?
Do you know what's meant by the rights of Man?
Idle hands
Idle hands
Idle hands...
