opiate for the masses – illusions lyrics
i’d give a large piece of all i have
for someone to tell me who i am
a small price to pay
for an illusion today
but when i stand my ground
they just push me away
i keep my mouth shut
cause the keep me fed
i hide the thoughts inside my head
a small price to pay
for an illusion today
but when i stand my ground
they just push me away
(the successful inst-tutions
are the best of all illusions
they are anti-humanistic
and they’ve got the power of atomic fusion) x2
(like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom
when the jungle shadows fall
like the tick tick tock of the stately clock
as it stands against the wall)
i have no regrets for faith in you
til the day you would not see me through
a small price to pay for what was yesterday
cause when i stood my ground
you just pushed me away
(the successful inst-tutions
are the best of all illusions
they are anti-humanistic
and they’ve got the power of atomic fusion) x2
the successful inst-tutions
are the best of all illusions
they are anti-humanistic
and they’ve got the power of atomic fusion
they set the tide for atomic fusion (x4)
the successful inst-tutions
are the best of all illusions
they are anti-humanistic
and they’ve got the power of atomic fusion
the successful inst-tutions
or the best of all illusions
they are anti-humanistic
and they have the power of atomic fusion
and the set the tide for atomic fusion
(like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom
when the jungle shadows fall
like the tick tick tock of the stately clock
as it stands against the wall)
