from "Resistance Is All We Got"
AMP 2004

lyrics

Well the FBI was stalking the bushes that were blocking
the gateway to the new Pentagon
and the puppets and the pigeons and birds of all religions
prayed and poured their blood on it's lawn

and the Nazi flying saucers and scandals out of Chaucer
hid well the crime from all watching eyes
but then, cutting through the veil, the Tibetan monks prevailed
and the light let out a wail of surprise
through the skies

(chorus)
but something's still missing and should you care to listen
then you'll hear the kids asking why
do the secret operators and sacred space invaders
inflate their hollow heads with a lie
and the interns disappear like a movie star's career
and the king is clad in only the sky
so am I

See him selling you his soul but there's nothing but a hole
and it's colder than the space between stars
just one look into his eyes in a mirror made of ice
melts, revealing who we all really are
how bizarre ~

And the lawyers all were lynching, the oilmen were flinching
when Magdalene would mention their names
and the puppets and the pigeons and birds of all religions
burned their faith and flew through the flames
just the same

(chorus)
But something's still missing and should you care to listen
well then you'll hear the kids asking why
do the secret operators and sacred space invaders
inflate their hollow heads with a lie
and the interns disappear like a movie star's career
and the king is clad in only the sky
so am I
