The Fool's Paradise

Everybody know this is nowhere, Some kind of fools paradise Flying blind people, going nowhere, Chained to that device And you want to be hip, But you're a rat running round on a Mobius trip, Wasted days turn to night You want a big stack, Baby Betty needs a new rack, And tattoo wings for the afterlife... I'm talking about you, But it's all about me, give the devil his due He's going the distance, and there's no resistance And lies become the truth Generation x, generation why, Intelligent conversation, don't you even try, Don't you wonder why... It's good to be king, Take a ride in my long black limousine, Driving down this river of light You got a beautiful face, a little cut, a little paste, Namaste baby, what's your sign. You wanna be famous? you better be outrageous, Prepared to pay any price I'm here to please, in the end you'll be on your knees, Cause there's no escape from this paradise I'm talking about you, but it's all about me, I give the devil his due, I'm going the distance, And there's no resistance and Lies become the truth Generation x, generation pussify, Intelligent conversation don't you even try, out here in the fool's paradise
