Fool's Game

Bitter 'ol men
Want to tell me about freedom.
Teenagers
Want to tell me about the sixties.
They're all looking for an easy buy, fighting for their mortal right,
To be deceived
By their own deadly dreams.

But I don't want to play a fool's game, When the plate comes around
I'll feel the same.

Hollywood stars and millionaires
Still claim debt 'cause they live in fear.
Fantasies just burn,
You can't hide from honest work.
Even love's a business now,
And you're confused,
Because you feel left out.

So I don't want to play a fool's game, When the plate comes around
I'll feel the same.

And I'll answer the pain
That won't allow our minds
To learn,
Because it's a struggle
And it's hard
When despair
Steals all our concern.
We're immune to touch
Don't feel much
And it's far beyond belief.
Far beyond belief.

So I don't want to play a fool's game, When the plate comes around
I'll feel the same.
So tilt the machine
'til you know
What you need.
Hey we're still free.
