|
Night time fell at the opening,
|
In the final act of the beginning of time
|
Hyena take your role, the stage is set
|
The town is safe again tonight
|
|
(chorus)
|
Hyena (I see the day ahead)
|
Hyena (and all that I've cried through)
|
Hyena (God knows you're doin' that, don't you?)
|
|
Hyena, sister look to your hand
|
Man you serve communal interest,
|
She'll tell you when and where and how and why you'd hurt
|
A beautiful young lady
|
|
(repeat chorus)
|
|
The only thing to fear is fearlessness
|
The bigger the weapon the greater the fear
|
Hyena is ambassador to here
|
|
Night time fell like the closing
|
Meager pay, but recognition
|
Hyena crawls on his belly out
|
The town is safe again tonight
|
|
Hyena (I see the changes, man)
|
Hyena (goin' on 'cross the way)
|
Hyena (I see my road ahead)
|
Hyena (don't know if I should stay)
|
Hyena (I see you holding him)
|
Hyena (and all that I've cried through)
|
Hyena (God knows you're doin' that, don't you?)
