you will never
be understood
you will never
understand
the alligator knows
more than you do
while the moon soaks up
humanity’s insanity
you cannot run
you cannot hide
not in this lifetime
not in the next
you play the game
think you are winning
while London sleeps
Paris makes love
and Rome sings
you don’t know
the game is rigged
somebody will lose
that somebody is you
you cannot win
not in this lifetime
not in the next
all you have left
is insane hope
he who believes
in the unicorn
and Santa Claus
is comforted by lies
Atlantis will rise again
you will make love
to beautiful mermaids
one dream only allowed
in this lifetime
and the next
