Where Next Columbus

Anothers hope, anothers game
Anothers loss, anothers gain
Anothers lies, anothers truth
Anothers doubt, anothers proof
Anothers left, anothers right
Anothers peace, anothers fight
Anothers name, anothers aim
Anothers fall, anothers fame
Anothers pride, anothers shame
Anothers love, anothers pain
Anothers hope, anothers game
Anothers loss, anothers gain
Anothers lies, anothers truth
Anothers doubt, anothers proof
Anothers left, anothers right
Anothers peace, anothers fight
Marx had an idea from the confusion of his head
Then there were a thousand more waiting to be led
The books are sold, the quotes are bought
You learn them well and then you’re caught
Anothers left, anothers right
Anothers peace, anothers fight
Mussolini had an idea from the confusion of his heart
Then there were a thousand more waiting to play their part
The stage was set, the costumes worn
And anothers empire of destruction born
Anothers name, anothers aim
Anothers fall, anothers fame
Jung had an idea from the confusion of his dream
Then there were a thousand more waiting to be seen
You’re not yourself the theory says
But I can help, your complex pays
Anothers hope, anothers game
Anothers loss, anothers gain
Sartre had an idea from the confusion of his brain
Then there were a thousand more indulging in his pain
Revelling in isolation and existential choice;
Can you truly be alone when you use anothers voice?
Anothers lies, anothers truth
Anothers doubt, anothers proof
The idea born in someones mind
Is nurtured by a thousand blind
Anonymous beings, vacuous souls
Do you fear the confusion, your lack of control?
You lift your arm to write a name
So caught up in the identity game
Who do you see?
Who do you watch?
Who’s your leader?
Which is your flock?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who’s your leader?
Which is your flock?
Who’s your leader?
Which is your flock?
Who’s your leader?
Which is your flock?
Who’s your leader?
Which is your flock?
Einsten had an idea from the confusion of his knowledge
Then there were a thousand more turning to advantage
They realised that their god was dead
So they reclaimed power through the bomb instead
Anothers code, anothers brain
They’ll shower us all in deadly rain
Jesus had an idea from the confusion of his soul
Then there were a thousand more waiting to take control
The guilt is sold, forgiveness bought
The cross is there as your reward
Anothers love, anothers pain
Anothers pride, anothers shame
Do you watch at a distance from the side you have chosen?
Whose answers serve you best?
Who’ll save you from confusion?
Who will leave you an exit and a comfortable cover?
Who will take you oh so near their edge, but never drop you over?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
Who do you watch?
