It's in the air like pestilence spreading to the settlements Infecting residents trapped in irrelevance 'cause presidents - dead or alive - take precedence According to the preference of so-called intelligence The communities are sacked with impunity By stooges of il duce with immunity Soon to be distorted and contorted when the story gets reported And I'm foolish enough to still think that it's important So I look the all seeing eye in the retina Bettin' ya that it won't blink so I don't blink back Far reaching but not far fetched So far so good but what comes next? Chorus The rings they kiss, the arms they twist Get pissed at this The chances missed, the cowardice Get pissed at this So what happens to a dream deferred of purple mountains Accountants scrounge for coins they found in fountains Serving promisary notes for lives lived a la mode Will it dry up like a raisin, or just explode I've seen the signs in semifore And those dreams that died like dinosaurs So come with me underneath the streets that pound you feet And treat your life lines more like they metaphors Drop the bomb, stop the watch, end the silence And learn from Circe cause I hear sirens Tyrants seek compliance from their cohorts Freedom has it's price, can they afford yours? Chorus Did you change the world our your point of view.. Will I change the world or my point of view Chorus
