Lyrics for Johannesburg

Please don't show your soul to me I think I'd see the light shine through And please don't greet me on the street I'd like to see a world without you Please don't change your uniform And start to mourn the thousands dead And please wear what you've always worn And don't be drawn by what I've said 'Cause I've found there's nothing more That I could say to you Nothing I could do to change your mind Change your ways and your tune So please don't feel you have to sway Or move away from how you feel And please say what you mean to say And always stay with a heart of steel
