Panis et Circensis (translation)
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.
I'd like to sing
The music lighted with the heat of the sun
I drew the flags high on the slip of the wind
I sent the lions to my neighbours' backyard
But all the people having dinner inside
Are very busy with their food
'Til they die
I told the man
To make of stainless steel a very sharp sword
To kill my girlfriend on the heart and I did
At five o'clock at that central liebe stop
But all the people having dinner inside
Are very busy with their food
'Til they die
I told the man
To sew the seeds of dream in my bedroom floor
The leaves will know their way to reach out the sun
And their roots keep just going down, going down
But all the people having dinner inside
That same old people having dinner inside
But all the people having dinner inside
That same old people having dinner inside
Are very busy with their food
'Til they die
