Overlords

Well, i been breakin' rocks

Up on coolie number three

I know it's been forever

Thought you'd never hear from me

The weather here is rotten

Rainin' granite all the time

And both moons are glowin' purple

And there is no sun to shine



I keep diggin' deep down in a tunnel that goes

Twenty miles down

And i know my life is cheap

When i hear that rumblin' sound





Oh, the overlords

Got me workin' overtime

Oh, the overlords

No, they never make it rhyme





And there is somethin' in the air

That is burnin' in my throat

A big black cloud is passin'

Droppin' acid on my coat

Oh, the overlords

Got me workin' overtime





It's been ten years and a day

After world war nine

They pushed us to make meaning

And from the meaning was our crime

Last night i had a dream
