One day I see this funny lookin' dude I say who the f*** are you? He says, who the f*** are you? I'm the maestro motherf**** You guys been runnin' around like a bunch of bu*theads Tearin' the world apart Thinkin' you're gonna somehow slip by the Lord of d**h With your rotten heart And the joker and the theif are still confused as they ever been Still can't get no relief And the princes are still circlin' your marketplace They stealin' everything, but you know, You can keep me waiting here All alone for a thousand years Burn out my ears and eyes But the maestro still abides So I say maestro, that sounds like some deep s*** But I don't know what you're talkin' about And he says yeah, you don't know much It's cause you runnin' around singing for these a****** for your supper and your lunch When you gonna wake up and take your life back from this stupid **** Ain't nobody gonna just hand it back to you If you can't grab it You can keep me waiting here All alone for a thousand years Burn out my ears and eyes But the maestro still abides Man you guys, don't you realize, the maestro still abides? Burn out my ears and eyes, drown out their wretched cries Replace the whole world with lies but the maestro still abides
