Stranger in a Strange Land |
Andy Warhol’s modern man builds a castle in the air |
The deck is stacked but his house of cards |
Grows as high as the market will bear |
It won’t take much to make his ship of dreams |
Come crashing to the ground |
You just wait for the wheel of fate to turn |
And the wind of the wolf is gonna blow it all down |
Shallow rivers of fashion run on courses tried and true |
The masses dive in and it washes them down |
Makes 'em feel like they’re all brand new |
Blinding hatred caused by fear is |
Showing in their eyes |
They want their truth all black and white |
But a rainbow never tells no lies to a |
Stranger in a Strange Land |
What’s a man supposed to do? |
Just a Stranger in a Strange Land… |
(waiting and watching and wondering) |
When will the light come shining through… |
To feed the heart’s addiction, in answer to my soul |
It may not be the best of worlds, but it’s the only one I know |
In the shadow of Damocles' atomic sword |
We learn to live with fear |
Stringing out lives of quiet desperation |
We’re all just strangers here… |
Riding along on the razor edge |
Burned in the acid rain |
Groped in the darkness, searching for a way |
To fill the empty space inside |
And between us all… |
