| «Do you remember how it used to be?»
|
| They always say.
|
| You mean those days when everybody laughed?
|
| Well, how did they ever, ever slip away?
|
| Just like rolling off a log!
|
| As we say goodbye to God.
|
| Yeh, the animal still feels odd
|
| Asleep inside.
|
| Well how it was, was how it had to be
|
| At the end of every day.
|
| So perfect in its sense of duty.
|
| Well how did it ever, ever slip away?
|
| Just like rolling off a log!
|
| The scientist thinks it’s odd
|
| That the animal says it’s God.
|
| Asleep inside.
|
| Spoken:
|
| So many fought the wars,
|
| And what was that all for?
|
| They said between good and evil?
|
| Well I think they lied a little.
|
| We live in a prison, somewhat of our own design.
|
| Grab the key, unlock the door,
|
| Then you’ll know what life is for.
|
| Stop rolling off a log!
|
| Yeah, the scientist says it’s odd
|
| And the animal still seems odd,
|
| Asleep inside.
|
| After such a long parade of history,
|
| So many seeing eyes.
|
| I wonder how life could do this thing to me?
|
| How could I ever, ever lose my mind?
|
| Just like rolling off a log!
|
| And the animal still seems odd.
|
| Asleep inside.
|
| Inside.
|
| Asleep inside.
|
| Asleep inside.
|
| It sleeps inside.
