Lyrics Pagan's Paradise - Kayak

Pagan's Paradise

Who can tell the nightmare from the dream?
Whom to believe, whom to mistrust
People rarely say the things they mean
Driven by greed, religion or lust
To secure the royal future of the state
It’s best to read the neutral hands of fate
Soldiers and cardinals, servants and maids
All are keeping their hidden agenda
They seem to be loyal, but may in effect
Just be traitors in disguise
So where can you go when you’re left on your own
And there’s nobody to rely on
The spirits rule in pagan’s paradise
People say that gallantry serves me best
Flatter none but your foes, pretend to be nice
What’s really on my mind can’t be assessed
As I ally myself with men of despise
The only way to win is to divide
I deal the cards, know how to play them right
Soldiers and cardinals, servants and maids
All are keeping their hidden agenda
They seem to be loyal, but may in effect
Just be traitors in disguise
So where can you go when you’re left on your own
And there’s nobody to rely on
The spirits rule in pagan’s paradise
Soldiers and cardinals, servants and maids
All are keeping their hidden agenda
They seem to be loyal, but may in effect
Just be traitors in disguise
So where can you go when you’re left on your own
And there’s nobody to rely on
The spirits rule in pagan’s paradise
