O’Hooley & Tidow
The Hum
[Chorus]
Hum is the sound in the sound in the sound
Hum

[Verse 1]
Jennifer and Wayne would often times complain
Viewing a house where a factory remained
The singular reason they pulled out of the sale
It would never pass in pursuit of middle class

To wake up to that din, it really wouldn't do
How could they retire when the poor refused to
When the poor refused to?

[Verse 2]
Clever Mrs B, she cared for herself
Preferring poppies to cigarettes I'd say
Found the poison nectar, draped in nicotine
Equivalent dose to 60 fags a day

Should we side with pest or let human do its best?
Eradicate with ease, a hundred million years
A hundred million years

[Chorus]
The hum is the people
Is the sound of the people
In the sound are the people
In the sound of the people
Is the hum, is the buzzing
Is the sound of the buzzing
Of the bees, is the humming
Of the sound of the buzzing
Is the hum

[Verse 3]
Decisions from above, from those who have the means
To spray the common folk, expunge community
How lovely it must be
[Chours]
The hum is the people
Is the sound of the people
In the sound are the people
In the sound of the people
Is the hum, is the buzzing
Is the sound of the buzzing
Of the bees, is the humming
Of the sound of the buzzing
Is the hum, is a factory
Is a mine, is a playground
Is a hive is a garden
Is a school, is a village
Is a choir, is a forest
Is a town, is a person
Is a group, is a heart
Is a mind, is a voice
Is the hum

The hum is the people
Is the sound of the people
In the sound are the people
In the sound of the people
Is the hum, is the buzzing
Is the sound of the buzzing
Of the bees, is the humming
Of the sound of the buzzing
Is the hum
