Lyrics

THE BEAST: (A. Young) Here's to all that's new in time/ here's to the direction we go/ most everything we learn/ it seems we already know/ see we're trapped in this circus net/ yeah we're damn near over the top/ I can feel my brain changing/ I can smell the fruit rot/ so where are you now my friend/ is there a moon in your skies/ Ay-man don't play these games/ so why do you run and hide/ you can take a link from my chain/ you can pull a book from my shelves/ you can walk a mile in my shoes/what have you got to loose/ I wish I could put my finger on the nature of the beast/ how many martyred angels still linger in these streets/ seeking absolution/ seeking the oblivion express/ here's to you one and all/ hello goodnight and God bless/ One women one man one vote one dog one child one life, emancipation proclamation/ you can cut that with a knife/ this foggy world is fading fast/ like a drunk in his cups/ the rich world's eating sushi/ while the poor world's cleaning up/
