|
Morning is yawning and out comes the sun |
|
With no choice but to light nothing new |
|
Opening eyes as the radio sighs |
|
Three chords and any old lies |
|
On to the sheets and maybe the streets |
|
I imagine as vibrant and shrill |
|
A comedy troupe of molecular soup |
|
Atoms chiming in time and in tune |
|
Give us circus and bread |
|
It keeps us happy |
|
But what do we do, now we are happy? |
|
Gorging on everything all of the time |
|
Passing it on to the brood |
|
Fattening kids for the future ahead |
|
In case we run out of food |
|
The audience roar and move in for the kill |
|
A spectacle threatening to spill |
|
They want it right now, but they want it low fat |
|
Expectancy drips down their chins |
|
Give us circus and bread |
|
It keeps us happy |
|
But what do we do, now we are happy? |
