where did you go
Michaelangelo
where did you go
Nostrodamus, and what you foretold
where did you go
Dante and Leonardo
where did you go
all inventions and lost souls
we're so happy
we just want to play
not now and then
but each and everyday
we're so happy
we're so cuckoo
once upon a thyme
and a rosemary or two
where did you go
where did you go
we have wandered forty years
and still no place to go
where did we go
where did we go
science left us in tears
for all this nothingness we know
we're so happy
we're so cuckoo
we're so happy
we're so in love with "truth"
we're so happy
we're so cuckoo
we rush out for the shiny
everything that's new
fall
remembering
all the leaves of old
fall
veins of leafs
and our world views
rotting amid the mold
solo
where did you go
where did you go
we have wandered forty years
and still no place to go
we're so happy
we just want to play
not now and then
each and everyday
we're so happy
we just want to play
not now and then
each and everyday
we're so happy
we just want to play
not now and then
each and everyday
when insanity rains
like a virus on the rise
when experts go deranged
and feed off each others lies
when insanity reigns
and theorectical gods arise
when science goes down in flames
belief in beliefs can stem the tide
(laughter)
when insanity reigns
a virus in disguise
