21st Century Schizoid Man
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.
[Originally performed by King Crimson]
Cat's foot iron claw
Neuro-surgeons scream for more
At paranoia's poison door
Twenty first sentury schizoid man.
Blood rack barbed wire
Politicians' funeral pyre
Innocents raped with napalm fire
Twenty first sentury schizoid man.
Death seed blind man's greed
Poets' starving children bleed
Nothing he's got he really needs
Twenty first sentury schizoid man.
