Will all promises be kept?

Will we all be better off?

I get the notion we won't know

Until the ketamine wears off

I looked up and to my left and saw

A canopy of greed

I do not need to be unburdened

I just need someone to lead

And if it looks a bit familiar

Like it did the other time

They say that history don't repeat itself

No, history just rhymes

The river's deep

The river's wide

And there ain't no way across it 'cept to swim or sink and die

The way is long

The path is mean

I ain't got none of my friends left, they all vanished in the stream

I ain't got none of my friends left, they all vanished in the stream

When the black cat with his chainsaw

Picked a child from his litter

To remind us he's a man

I'll admit I did feel bitter

And I wondered if the jester knew

That he's in on the joke

Some folks don't ask whats in the wagon

They just grin and bear the yoke

And if it looks a bit familiar

Like it did the other time

They say that history don't repeat itself

No, history just rhymes

The river's deep

The river's wide

And there ain't no way across it 'cept to swim or sink and die

The way is long

The path is mean

I ain't got none of my friends left, they all vanished in the stream

I ain't got none of my friends left, they all vanished in the stream

When they pave over the bodies

And democratize the stones

I will leave a Yelp review

In the valley of the bones

When the thirsty get their blood

And all the people's souls departed

They can raise the holy swollen

Golden temple of the arches

Onward history marches

And if it looks a bit familiar

Like it did the other time

They say that history don't repeat itself

No, history just rhymes

The river's deep

The river's wide

And there ain't no way across it 'cept to swim or sink and die

The way is long

The path is mean

I ain't got none of my friends left, they all vanished in the stream

I ain't got none of my friends left, they all vanished in the stream
