Another Day In Paradise

Counterculture use to mean something Now the antichrist is free real-estate Try to make sense of it, I dare you There's nothing there for us Clutching at the brass ring Finding out it's greased Scrape together thriving From whatever you can suss We need meat on the bone Yearning for something real Promises heaped were promises broken Not allowed to make a fuss Start the eclipse Sink below the ice Tell me he's back It'll be another day in paradise It all started when Bowie died He was the lynchpin of it all The Great White Duke, was more than we deserved Better places now, Ziggy Stardust There's hope in shattered circles Got a glimmer in the slivers See my own reflection, a thousand times refracted Know I'll do what I must Start the eclipse Pay the price Herald the end It'll be another day in paradise We can't but we have to We're tired but we must We deserved better What did they do with all our trust? It's still a question if we would For everyone's collective good If we could get our head out of our ass And realize we should It's all so exhausting, truly But we still need to fill our bellies I don't think we're gonna change the world Standing round on empty Tomorrow's still coming And we've got some pretty big plans We can shape our tiny universe Keep it good with plenty Start the eclipse Roll weighted dice Eat the sun Another day in paradise Start the eclipse Carve out a slice We'll be here Another day in paradise
