The Unicorns Are Screaming!
Well the doctor said better slow down world
cos you don't know what you're taking
And the man with the crown had it melted
down to pay for all the faking
And the prince on the hill was standing still
they thought he was a statue
But the horsemen came in the dead of night
and they still coming at you
Children play with a skipping rope
but the rope is growing tighter
Teachers teach and the rich get rich
but the waters rising faster
When the flood comes down
and the blood runs out
Who will slay the demon
To the shiny knight on a golden horse
The unicorns are screaming
On a dusty plain in the arid heat
the trees and seeds are dying
In the market square no justice there
empathy is crying
Fire fries the once blue skies
and all our dreams of freedom
Diamond eyes and social lies
follow those who lead them
So we stand in a broken land
with smoke and ash around us
Aztecs, priests and poets despair
as their power leaves them helpless
And the tiny gods with feet of clay
all mouth and nothing to them
Raise their arms are carried away
in the flood of empty reason
