Songtext Panda Jefferson Airplane

Panda

He lives all alone
But the bamboo forest knows him
Now his land is taken by man
He's got, nowhere left to go
Well he used to roam
Through all of China's mountains
It was his home
The only place he knows
He was born on the mountain's Eastern side
Where the sun brings the morning to the sky
In the snow, the human hunters hide
A shot is heard, but no one hears him cry
Oh Panda Bear my gentle friend
I don't wanna say goodbye
Oh Panda Bear when will the killing end
When will we see the light?
He can feel the night,
The last sunset is in his eyes
They will carry him away,
Take his beauty for their prize
Ah, but hunger would have come
When the bamboo forest died
Oh Panda Bear you can't seem to win
No matter how hard you try
Oh Panda Bear my gentle friend
I don't wanna say goodbye
Now his body lies on the mountain's Western side
He was sold to a man whose money has no pride
Shining fur traded for gold, but the price is too high
His kind is almost gone
He wants to survive
He was born on the mountain's Eastern side
Where the sun brings the morning to the sky
If we will try to share that morning light
We will find that we all have the right to life
Oh Panda Bear my gentle friend
I don't wanna say goodbye
Oh Panda Bear when will the killing end
When will we get it right?
Panda
