Opiate For The Ma**es - Illusions lyrics

[Verse 1: Ron Underwood] I give a large piece of all I have For someone to tell me who I am A small price to pay For an Illusion today But when I stand my ground They just push me away I keep my mouth shut 'cause they keep me fed I hide the thoughts inside my head A small price to pay For an Illusion today But when I stand my ground They just push me away [Chorus 1: Ron Underwood] The successful institutions Are the best of all Illusions They are anti-humanistic And they got the power of atomic fusion. (2×) Like the beat, beat, beat of the tom-tom When the jungle shadows fall Like the tick, tick-tock of a stately clock As it stands against the wall [Verse 2: Ron Underwood] I had no regrets for faith in you 'Til the day you would not see me through A small price to pay For what was yesterday 'Cause when I stood my ground You just pushed me away [Chorus 2: Ron Underwood] The successful institutions Are the best of all Illusions They are anti-humanistic And they got the power of atomic fusion. (2×) [Interlude] Aahaah-aah-aahaahaah-aah-aah [Chorus 3: Ron Underwood] The successful institutions Are the best of all Illusions They are anti-humanistic And they got the power of atomic fusion They set the time for atomic fusion They set the time for atomic fusion They set the time for atomic fusion They set the time for atomic fusion Well you tell them what you want, just don't tell them the truth Well you tell them what you want, just don't tell them the truth Well you tell them what you want, just don't tell them the truth Well you tell them what you want, just don't tell them the truth The successful institutions Are the best of all Illusions They are anti-humanistic And they got the power of atomic fusion The successful institutions Are the best of all Illusions They are anti-humanistic And they set the time for atomic fusion. (Like the beat, beat, beat of the tom-tom When the jungle shadows fall Like the tick, tick-tock of a stately clock As it stands against the wall.)
