Chameleons - Return Of The Roughnecks lyrics

Up and down

These days are up and down

They call it elevated living

A faster future for a faster breed

Unforgiving unfulfilling

The spirit's willing

But the mind is weak

I had an empty education

I want to speak

But when I try to speak

It doesn't help the situation

And some they fly while others fall

And some they walk while others crawl

It stops them feeling small

That's all

Shake your hand

They'll always shake your hand

Without a moments hesitation

Burning bridges

And snapping strands

That support a generation

You want to climb

But when you try to climb

You see the ladder getting shorter

You want to drink

But when you try to drink

There's someone pissing in the water

The soul is something they can buy

So softly step inside

Says the spider to the fly

Nice try

And every day you're crucified

If you can't look them in the eye

Smile and wave goodbye

Nice try

Vices embraced in times of crisis

Sweet vices embraced in times of crises

That's all
