Now is the time |
|
To show that you care |
|
You were offered hope |
|
But you chose despair |
|
Well you won't know what hit you |
|
When it all comes down |
|
You will crawl through the rubble |
|
Of your one-horse town |
|
But beware the false prophet |
|
Who foretells of this doom |
|
Sitting smug and complacent |
|
In this mansion house room |
|
Well he poisoned the bride then ran off with the groom |
|
Now he travels by night 'neath a world weary moon |
|
He's a wandering minstrel |
|
In a bodily cut suit |
|
Resplendent with afro |
|
And electric lute |
|
And he's speaking in riddles |
|
And he's speaking in tongues |
|
Whilst he plays through a fuzzbox |
|
To an audience of one |
|
And he's speaking in riddles |
|
And he's speaking in tongues |
|
But his words fall like snowflakes |
|
Which melt in the sun |
|
So now is the time |
|
To show that you care |
|
You were offered hope |
|
But you chose despair |
|
You were offered hope |
|
So why choose despair? |
