So precious an animal
To have legs like me
They ache just like me
So simple an animal can be
Do you see a path where there is
No finishing line?
To know what I am capable of
Is to know what I have consciously done
The oh so ugly things
From which I tried to run
But couldn’t keep hiding from
If you break out of the cage
You’re still following it
The road is a freedom
For all the music to come with
And you can’t replace something
That doesn’t exist
This isn’t a democracy
Just humans dancing in their own shit
Needing me you’re suckling
And I’ve only got two nipples
Two hands
And too many lips
This great big machine
Is just distracting at best
You’ve got to know when it’s time
For a revolution and
Put your resistance to the test
There’s a bunch of talk
Among those whose action
Speaks louder than words
Speaks louder than anything I’ve ever heard
Like a needed drink of water
Where it won’t be raining these coming years
Selfish and ignorant are
Sitting with the pigs
You’re the new fat king of this sty
Congratulations the government eats your kind
Look at what you built with your own hands
You still wondering what is
Attracting the flies?
We’re still connected
Even when you dropped the turkey
We picked up with the pie
I’ll be the monkey dancing tonight
You can be the elephant for
As long as you like
And I’ll see how far you let go of the line
That you never could cross
Maybe it was god
Maybe just a really good spicy sauce
I sold everything to give you money
You bought cable and you bought into
Every religious channel
Then you asked if I was afraid to die
I said do you ever wonder what’s reflecting time?
We survived
So what
I’m forcing out all those who forced their way in
Cause I’ve learned the techniques of war
It’s not that stunning
I know the slow fade is coming
Only this time the darkness seems more like the light than
Anything I’ve felt so far
So real an animal can be
What we create is everything
For what are we
We are real
Aren’t we?
