The Saga Of Pepote Rouge (Remastered 2000) - The Band

There's a legend of a lady on the mountain

Lives alone beyond the mecca plain

And with her hands

She makes it through the winter

She never goes against the grain

To be someone is to be someone alone

To be someone is known as solitude

To learn to sing below the surface

You must adjust your altitude

Break the news the pepote rouge is coming to town

We stand accused pepote rouge of bein' hell bound

She had a vision and now

She holds the key

You don't know

What you want 'till you find out

What you need

I was stranded on the damn coast when a lady

Called to me in a voice so soft and low

Her words resounded like a fountain of truth

And then she faded like a rainbow

Her golden spaceship with the mother of the earth

Carved in stone the queen of avatars

Where seventy children were given birth

She then returned back to the stars

Break the news the pepote rouge is coming to town

We stand accused pepote rouge of bein' hell bound

She can help us find our way and get across

You don't know what you gained

'Till you find out

What you lost

Pepote rouge come down from the mountain

And lead our people into the light of day

For they are lost and know not where they're goin'

And all their leaders are cast in clay

Now disbelief and mass confusion

Spreading wild across the land

You can call it love or call it wisdom

To be not savin' a drowning man

Break the news the pepote rouge is coming to town

We stand accused pepote rouge of bein' hell bound

She can show us just where we went wrong

You don't know

Where you're goin' 'till you find where

You belong
