A Legend Of A Legend

A Legend Of A Legend

The Friday feeling being wasted losing everything you lacked

You’re looking leaner, meaner, tougher looking like a real cool cat

Taking bets on silent killers perking up your empty heart

The second hand is motionless I like to watch you fall apart

You see a parody and parallel to everything you felt

Where all the spiritual and dutiful will offer up their help

They’re waving crosses, beads and bibles saying how your life could be

Disbelieving in your reasons disbelief in what you see

Cut! but you don’t bleed

Now, there’s a rocket in your pocket, seen an effect but no cause

And all the energy in vengeance sees you opening old sores

The world of jokers, brokers, mockers say you’re rotten to the skin

And all those bones that creak below it sign confessions of their sins

Now there’s a legend of a legend and a classic being made

But all the legend’s are just legends and the classics seem to fade

You see the second hand rotating like a turbine in a gale

Say goodbye to yester-morrow where the challengers all failed

A legend of a legend never fails
