Feel the Hunger Burning

I got lost in an Ashbury daydream
A bohemian beckoned to me, he said
"Open your eyes and put your feet to the flame"
Feel the hunger burning

I awoke and I couldn't get back to sleep
Like a dirty little secret that I had to keep
I could feel the world dissolving under me
And feel the hunger burning

Lyin' awake and I wonder
Where did the garden go
Can you hear the distant thunder
It's comin' this way, you know

One little voice crying to be free
High above the roar of the war machine
There are flies in the eyes of democracy
Feel the hunger burning

Let freedom reign in the land of the brave
Let it crawl from that cave and be born again
Let it flow from the hearts of the flower children
Who feel the hunger burning

Can you feel the world turn
Can you hear the children cry
Do you feel the hunger burn
How do you sleep at night
Do you feel the hunger burning?
