Giants
|
When no one looks the clouds come rolling in,
|
And under darkened skies the buildings grow big teeth and eyes.
|
They breathe and walk through unending doors,
|
Eating restaurants, and barbershops, and hardware stores.
|
With catch phrases and jingles stealing,
|
Steal and concrete lies,
|
The corridors of Babylon are craning for the skies.
|
|
Chorus:
|
Who's behind the curtain anyway,
|
Who pulls the levers and tells the lies?
|
Giants roam the land today,
|
Gaining dominance with every stride.
|
|
Oh don't you cry for the mom and pops,
|
Nothing but dry eyes for integrity's demise.
|
Hulking machines grind as whistles blow,
|
Corporate Darwinism crushes everything below.
|
Advances in efficiency increasing productivity,
|
Are narrowing the margin for liberty.
|
|
" This house is haunted by the ghost of Adam Smith,
|
The Wealth of Nations and the further death of innocence.
|
To rule the world, the desire of every man,
|
The earth is shaking,
|
There are giants in the land.
|
|
See the blood red sun is rising,
|
On the broken carnage from the darkest days.
|
Giants locked together arm and arm,
|
Pushing all the meek out of the way.
