Come and get it Rise and shine This prison door is fabric All in the mind Nature, who made the lock Always loosely defined the key No use in running Wounded and lame Shotgun ready Load, and take aim Whatever the TV said Forget it Or better just think about A way to grow old
Racing engine Temperature high Temptation fills you and you know you comply I'd fight addictions grip But I'm losing the will to try Don't know who's winning Don't know who cares Come back and ask me In seventy years Imagine, one simple step, oblivion! Consider - the devil! Or the deep blue sea
Slavery's a state of mind Got little to do with chains It creeps up close And lies in wait To anaesthetise your brains No use making the same mistakes For ever and ever amen When we're caught in a circle We can't stop spinning Back to the beginning again
Early morning, crack of dawn One moments peace Before the gathering storm No man can rest assured When his dreaming is cracked and torn Time slips Leaves fall Death comes Stand tall Delivered or so you think But angels stand watching While devils come close for the kill
Devils sing quotations From eve to early morn Demons use statistics To juggle from horn to horn So don't quote me examples Of your progress through the years When you're caught in a circle And you can't stop spinning Back to the beginning again
No use making the same mistakes For ever and ever amen Caught in a circle And you can't stop spinning Back to the beginning again No use making the same mistakes For ever and ever amen Caught in a circle And you can't stop spinning Back to the beginning again
Slavery's a state of mind Got little to do with chains It creeps up close And lies in wait To anaesthetise your brains No use making the same mistakes For ever and ever amen When we're caught in a circle We can't stop spinning Back to the beginning again
No use making the same mistakes For ever and ever amen No use making the same mistakes For ever and ever amen When we're caught in a circle We can't stop spinning Back to the beginning again When we're caught in a circle We can't stop spinning Back to the beginning again Don't keep making the same mistakes For ever and ever amen
