Land

 

( Galleon )

I was told a story once
of a land and people with strange minds
They belived they were the consious of their world

Allways knew wrong from right
Small on their earth but big in their words
We can think for you all we are in control

And when the day of election arrives
The politicians speak with serpent tongues
All the parties speak the same vows
Then breaks them but don´t feel ashamed


And they feed the peoples lies with a smile
They are cold and cynic minds
Small on their earth but big in their words
We know whats best
And you would hardly protest

The entertainment business in this land
As strang as the natives themselves
Talkes about a multifold world


Serves stupidity the burger chain way
Small on their earth but big in their words
We can think for you all we are in control

They feed a puppet show
A tradition with a man they called king
Doesen´t benefit the system at all
Just a relic a consuming thing


And they fawn for a house with no power and control
A ridiculous fuzz a modern sideshow
Small on their earth but big in their words
An appendix from the past
Out of date
