lyrics

HERE WE GO AGAIN

The road is clear for the new insane
heading once again for the fastbuck lane
you hold your horses but they’ve changed their van
reworking one more master plan

And it’s greed greed greed resurrection time
same old trick with the same old wine
it’s the next gravediggers-for-gold revival
to get shot in the foot by one’s own rifle

Do we hear something new or is it desperation
or the same old sleaze with greasers’ guarantees
oh, lead us not into temptation
will it do the trick or will it make us sick
well, forget all that fuzz about missing the bus, because...
what the doctor ordered is some patience

They turn their wine into water
then they whine that it ought to
be fine wine because they bought a
brand new balloon of speculation-farce

And they think that this time they will reach the stars
yeah they think that this time they will reach the stars
they think this time they’ll reach the stars
and I think they spent too much time on Mars

For what’s it worth, they did come down to earth
but since they’re on a different train here we go again
their world is quite a match for inflammable inflation
so lead us not into temptation

Still, I don’t even have the slightest notion
why they keep on bringing all that water to the ocean
I guess I’m talking about degeneration
oh, lead us not into temptation
