There was bread
|
Now it's crumbs
|
Inside each head
|
There's a piece that's small and dumb
|
When something's big and beautiful give it time
|
I'll make it small and dirty
|
Just to make it mine
|
|
|
I'll make it mine
|
I'll be King of the Heap
|
I'll make it mine
|
I'll be King of the Heap
|
|
|
There were pools
|
Now they're murk
|
Gold dust in mud and
|
Now all our play is work
|
Aggression is on every lip like stones on violins
|
Losing is the end result
|
Of far too many wins
|
|
|
I'll make it mine
|
I'll be King of the Heap
|
I'll make it mine
|
I'll be King of the Heap
|
It's bulldozing time
|
While you're asleep
|
I'll make it mine
|
I'll be King of the Heap
|
|
|
Turn the wheel and breathe the blackened sky
|
Hollow out and suck the marrow dry
|
Now it's gone
|
|
|
Hey them there hills
|
Will soon be holes
|
I will wear them down with files of gain and greed and goals
|
Under grass and rocks and dirt
|
It's warm inside the earth
|
That is where I'm going
|
I'm gonna pack it in my purse
|
|
|
And make it mine
|
I'll be King of the Heap
|
I'll make it mine
|
I'll be King of the Heap
|
It's bulldozing time
|
While you're asleep
|
I'll make it mine
|
I'll be King of the Heap
|
Turn the wheel
|
Turn the wheel
|
Breathe the blackened sky
|
Turn the wheel
|
Turn it, turn the wheel
|
