Your frustration has a face
But the guard said "no picture!"
You're studying the past
And you mastermind the future
We all dreamt of a rise
But we kept waiting for permission
You have a head full of the fight
And you won't win the election
So listen to the words that the parrot says and try to repeat
Listen to the words that the parrot says and try to repeat
So many babblers in the night
Selling out the same pollution:
"Have a last thought for the light
Before darkness wins the auction"
We were poets in exile
We were crappy little smokers
It was written in a file
By someone in the ghetto
So listen to the words that the parrot says and try to repeat
Listen to the words that the parrot says and try to repeat
Is this a terminal world
Or just crippling entertainment?
It was cries that I heard
And It was coming from the basement
So listen to the words that the parrot says and try to repeat
Listen to the words that the parrot says and try to repeat
Listen to the words that the parrot says and try to repeat
Listen to the words that the parrot says and try to repeat
