lyrics

You are not a man (You're just a little boy)
You are not a king (You're just a silly puppet)
Hanging from a string (you do the silly dancing)
All the children scream: “What a funny thing!”

Chasing after butterflies that always get away
Laughing at the children that follow and obey
Don’t you see the faces that are slowly turning grey?
The smell of smoke is rising and the patrons are afraid
Why, do you hate your children?
Why, do you send them to war?
Why, do you feed the greedy?
You take a little more yes you take a little more...

Billions for the war, nothing for the poor

You're just a little boy (you are not a man)
With your little toys (and your little plans)
Crying when you're angry (and screaming when you’re mad)
If you don't get your way: “Then everybody’s bad!”
Playing with the world like it's some kind of a game
When it isn't working right you find someone to blame
Don't you see the faces that are filling up with pain?
The smell of smoke is rising and the patrons are insane

NOTHING!!!

Lucid Dementia Austin, Texas

Lucid Dementia is an Avant Garde Industrial Metal band from Austin, Texas that is led by a 6 foot tall alien creature puppet.
"I don’t know quite what I was expecting, but quite frankly, I was blown away!!! This band is great! They’re Goth, punk, and tight as hell. I couldn’t stop pounding my feet and bobbing my head. I defy you not to get off!"
-John Aielli, KUT radio 90.5FM ... more
