|
There was tear gas in the poisonjester's mask |
|
Shed a tear, dear, for the clown |
|
Who tried to fight fire with water |
|
It went down on the ten o'clock news |
|
I bought the paper and walked back to where I parked |
|
The man on the movie theater steps |
|
Can always find his needle |
|
But I wonder where's the thread |
|
Chorus |
|
How much more can we bear |
|
Till the way is paved |
|
For the revolution |
|
There'll be nothing left unchanged |
|
Tonight I'm tired and I'm worn, so I consent |
|
To cede control to the remote |
|
To wrap me in its airtight void |
|
And keep me from my own |
|
Chorus |
|
We fight just wars and we build just walls |
|
We raise cities and make cities fall |
|
We raise children and we write their names |
|
On granite walls, we don't like losing games |
|
Chorus |
