"Joyful Motherfuckers"
(Jeremy Lindsay / Jt Nero / Allison Russell)

Where in the world are the joyful motherfuckers?
The fearless lovers, the rainbow shooters
The wild acceptors, the hopeful sinners
The gentle teachers, the true forgivers

Les courageuses, les amoureuses
Les enfants braves, les grand-meres jeunes, les lumineuses

If you've got love in your heart, but it's way down in the dark
You better let it see the sun, this world is almost done
Grandma always told me love will conquer hate
I don't know if it's too late, I don't know if it's too late
Hey you, hey you, who you think I'm talking to?
Show 'em what you got in your heart

Blessings be upon the thief of my childhood
The ragged jackal, that loveless coward
Oh my father, you were the thief of nothing
I'll be a child in the garden, ten-thousand years and counting

Les courageuses, les amoureuses
Les enfants braves, les grands-meres jeunes
Les lumineuses, petites merveilleuses
Constellations hors de temps
Le coeur est plus grand
Le coeur est plus grand
Qu'on soupcon

If you've got love in your heart, but it's way down in the dark
You better let it see the sun, this world is almost done
Grandma always told me love will conquer hate
I don't know if it's too late, I don't know if it's too late
Hey you, hey you, who you think I'm talking to?
Show 'em what you got in your heart
