You give a kid some candy |
|
He will always ask for more |
|
You give a man some power |
|
And off he goes to war |
|
So many strings tightly attached |
|
He seems like he is lost |
|
He makes a fine new decision |
|
Whatever be the cost |
|
|
|
I see images that cull |
|
Up on our deepest fears |
|
Just when all seems well |
|
The puppet appears |
|
|
|
Take me to silence |
|
I don't want to hear |
|
Bring me to blindness |
|
I don't need to see |
|
|
|
He'll pay no heed to his neighbour |
|
He'll pay the price to rule |
|
Only greed will bring him pleasure |
|
And make him king of fools |
