i fight lions - modern day gods lyrics

Loading...

clowns in fine suits, neither shrewd nor astute, expressing faux dissatisfaction
they don’t shoot blanks, they shoot flags that say bang; it’s all trickery – no actual action

drawn to the spotlight like bears to a beehive
they’ll gladly be stung for some of the honey inside

in the blink of an eye, the ink is all dry
and the history’s now undeniable
a suit and a tie are no armour from ire
still human, still fickle, still fallible
these modern day gods, they’ll smile and they’ll nod
but the cogs will rarely be turning
a roll of the dice deciding a life
but it’s fine, ‘cause it’s not there house burning down

the wordplay betrays a slapstick display where panic replaces the pratfall
somebody’s puppets are our puppeteers, it’s been that way since time immemorial

drawn to the spotlight like bears to a beehive
they’ll gladly be stung for that, mmm, sweet, sweet honey inside

down it goes
your hopes and your home up in smoke
as they laugh and they j-pe, ‘cause they can’t see the flames from their thrones
