Worldwide epiphany, epiphany
|
Down in the lowlands to the top of the hill
|
Don't know what's comin', but we know that it will
|
Blind in Benares, deaf and dumb in LA
|
|
Hiding in Africa, but nobody gets away
|
Give it up one more time for the king of soul
|
Let the good times roll, bring it on, bring it on
|
Dusk 'til dawn, the landlady's gone
|
|
Send the bill to the government, pack it in cement
|
Babies and bachelors, fishes, cabbages, and queens
|
Can't hear it comin', but we know what it means
|
Boats upon the ocean, every plane in the air
|
|
Never know just how or when, but we always know where
|
Take it from the ground up, this is the last roundup
|
You can't win, and you can't break even
|
You can't be leavin' the game anyway
|
|
You've got to stay 'cause we came to play
|
It's a new gene, a new wavelength, or maybe it's a virus
|
Put the fire in us and inspire us
|
To trust and lust for the good life
|
|
And all that is required of us
|
Turn to the headline news as if we had a right to choose
|
To have no views as the rocket's red glare pollutes the air,
|
And we swear that it can't happen here
|
|
And we'll never be there
|
We got the right to know, which means
|
We got the right to misunderstand
|
And slant the plan to help our hand and man
|
|
They call it a culture, but it sucks you in like quicksand
|
Killer bees finally make it to Tokyo
|
Juliet never made it with Romeo
|
But check out the video later
|
Terminator III's gonna preview the next fifty years or so
