And do his job like a man. | |
And he answered "Listen, Father, | |
I will never kill another." | |
He thinks he's better | |
than his brother that died | |
What the hell does he think he's doing | |
To his father who brought him up right? | |
Take your place on The Great Mandala | |
As it moves through your brief moment of time. | |
Win or lose now you must choose now | |
And if you lose you're only losing your life. | |
Tell the jailer not to bother | |
With his meal of bread and water today. | |
He is fasting 'til the killing's over | |
He's a martyr, he thinks he's a prophet. | |
But he's a coward, he's just playing a game | |
He can't do it, he can't change it | |
It's been going on for ten thousand yearsTell the people they are safe now | |
Hunger stopped him, he lies still in his cell. | |
Death has gagged his accusations | |
We are free now, we can kill now, | |
We can hate now, now we can end the world | |
We're not guilty, he was crazy | |
And it's been going on for ten thousand years! | |
Take your place on The Great Mandala | |
As it moves through your brief moment of time. | |
Win or lose now you must choose now | |
And if you lose you've only wasted your life. |
