Lyrics
Fools
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We waste our time with big illusions
Talking to the walls
But jericho will never fall
We sold our trumpets long ago
Exchanging all the best we had
Into atomic masterplans
We read the books we had our chance
We spend the world for just one dance
So keep on dancing, all you fools
The cups of fury have been filled
So keep on dancing, all you clowns
Lets have sip before we're killd
So keep on dancing
These politicians make me sigh
Democracy is just a lie
As long as we are rich enough
Each gouvernment will do for us
We feed like vampires on the world
We are the first, they are the third
There ain't no hope, we had our chance
We spent the world for one last dance
7 Seals
7 Trumpets
7 Cups
7 Plagues
7 Angels
The scarlet beast
Mother of harlots
Faithful and true
