Prometheus

Truth rotted in his bowls as he threw in the towel

And you watched him hang and howl at the slick-haired vultures

Now you pray he reappears cause they say he was a seer

With fire burning in his hands and something eating at his liver

Now you need him more now than ever don't you?

They're searching through the corn for a dead naked child

You hope she comes out of hiding before the blackbirds turn and fly south

And it may be spinning backwards but the earth is still a sphere

Where they drag your children out of the corn or from the river

And you need them now more than ever don't you?

Well they don't want your soul to be caught hanging precariously

When they find your body thawing somewhere in the corn

So they nailed up a scarecrow in the middle of an empty feild

He's frozen and he ain't doing nothing but you can go ahead and stone him if you need to

Don't you need to now more than ever?
