Paroles

0:02Once upon a time at the foot of a great mountain
0:05There was a town where the people known as happyfolk lived
0:10Their very existence a mystery to the rest of the world
0:13Obscured as it was by great clouds
0:17Here they played out their peaceful lives
0:20Innocent of the litany of excess and violence
0:22That was growing in the world below
0:25To live in harmony with the spirit
0:26Of the mountain called monkey was enough
0:29Then one day strangefolk arrived in the town
0:34They came in camouflage hidden behind dark glasses
0:37But no one noticed them they only saw shadows
0:41You see without the truth of the eyes
0:44The happyfolk were blind
0:48Falling out of aeroplanes and hiding out in holes
0:52Waiting for the sunset to come people going home
0:57Jump back from behind them and shoot them in the head
1:02Now everybody dancing the dance of the dead
1:07The dance of the dead the dance of the dead
1:24In time strangefolk found their way
1:26Into the high reaches of the mountain
1:29And it was there that they found the
1:30Caves of unimaginable sincerity and beauty
1:35By chance they stumbled upon the
1:37Place where all good souls come to rest
1:41The strangefolk they coveted the
1:43Jewels in these caves above all things
1:46And soon they began to mine the mountain
1:49It's rich seam fueling the chaos of their own world
1:55Meanwhile down in the town
1:57The happyfolk slept restlessly
1:59Their dreams invaded by shadowy
2:01Figures digging away at their souls
2:04Every day people would wake and stare at the mountain
2:08Why was it bringing darkness into their lives
2:12And as the strangefolk mined deeper
2:14And deeper into the mountain holes began to appear
2:17Bringing with them a cold and bitter
2:19Wind that chilled the very soul of the monkey
2:22For the first time
2:23The happyfolk felt fearful
2:25For they knew that soon the
2:27Monkey would stir from it's deep sleep
2:30And then came a sound distant first
2:33It grew into castrophany
2:35So immense it could be heard far away in space
2:40There were no screams there was no time
2:44The mountain called
2:45Monkey had spoken there was only fire
2:49And then nothing
2:53O little town in USA your time has come to see
2:58There's nothing you believe you want
3:03But where were you when it all came down on me
3:11Did you call me no
Once upon a time at the foot of a great mountain
There was a town where the people known as happyfolk lived
Their very existence a mystery to the rest of the world
Obscured as it was by great clouds
Here they played out their peaceful lives
Innocent of the litany of excess and violence
That was growing in the world below
To live in harmony with the spirit
Of the mountain called monkey was enough
Then one day strangefolk arrived in the town
They came in camouflage hidden behind dark glasses
But no one noticed them they only saw shadows
You see without the truth of the eyes
The happyfolk were blind
Falling out of aeroplanes and hiding out in holes
Waiting for the sunset to come people going home
Jump back from behind them and shoot them in the head
Now everybody dancing the dance of the dead
The dance of the dead the dance of the dead
In time strangefolk found their way
Into the high reaches of the mountain
And it was there that they found the
Caves of unimaginable sincerity and beauty
By chance they stumbled upon the
Place where all good souls come to rest
The strangefolk they coveted the
Jewels in these caves above all things
And soon they began to mine the mountain
It's rich seam fueling the chaos of their own world
Meanwhile down in the town
The happyfolk slept restlessly
Their dreams invaded by shadowy
Figures digging away at their souls
Every day people would wake and stare at the mountain
Why was it bringing darkness into their lives
And as the strangefolk mined deeper
And deeper into the mountain holes began to appear
Bringing with them a cold and bitter
Wind that chilled the very soul of the monkey
For the first time
The happyfolk felt fearful
For they knew that soon the
Monkey would stir from it's deep sleep
And then came a sound distant first
It grew into castrophany
So immense it could be heard far away in space
There were no screams there was no time
The mountain called
Monkey had spoken there was only fire
And then nothing
O little town in USA your time has come to see
There's nothing you believe you want
But where were you when it all came down on me
Did you call me no
