Poets Of The Fall

The devil may smile with an angels face
A cat may be stolen of its grace
They say it's just a matter of time and place
A man may be less than an animal
The antichrist write up the honor roll
The tightrope walker take the final fall (at his house, in the bathroom, on a holiday, and that's in the news)
Oh, the things you see
Makes ignorance bliss for you and me, yeah,
When arrogance does publicity,
Smiling happily
It's a merry go round and around and around
The begging boy becomes the begging man
The zealot never saves the sacrificial lamb
And a child want's to know if the Candyman can
Everybody want's the fancy car
And we've all been told not to run too far
But everybody wants to be a rock'n'roll star
Oh, the things you see
Makes arrogance seem the way to be, yeah,
When ignorance spreads conformity,
Smiling happily
It's a merry go round and around and around
