I know you don't believe anymore

So I wonder where you got the knowledge

With our desire to acquire more

In the service of your master

You can take a faster door

I know you don't pretend anymore

I wonder where you got the silver

I wonder how you got the power

I wonder where you got the fire

It isn't that surprising

A spiritual uprising, could affect things now

Down the street the celebration's

Reached disintegration, surging past anyhow

In the service of your master

You can take a faster door



Servants all we ebb and flow

Remindless as we come and go

Changes (changeless ?) as we die and grow

Cold dead womb and troubled sea

Resonate in sympathy

I know one day you'll come to me



With the faint whir of leathery wings

Evoking all impossible things

Eternal twilight feels so cold

When the money's all gone your love's been sold

The elephant god sits impassive

His ivory tusks are black and massive

We swing and we curve and we splinter in fits

Drum 'round his throne where he patiently sits

The law of the jungle, the jungle of lore

Devil of the rich, god of the poor

In this frenzied crowd I lose my isolation

As we merge together in celebration

The elephant god sits unmoved

His distant eyes, our tongues and grooves (are tongued and grooved ?)

The noise and the smell and the terrible dancers

Burning questions and nebulous answers



Servants all we ebb and flow

Remindless as we come and go

Changes as we die and grow



Cold dead moon the children see

Resonate in sympathy

I know one day you'll come to me



Our immaterial world is best

My fingers chase remindlessness

But just slowly come to rest



I know the walrus wasn't Paul

In El Dorado just once more

You're everything and even more (I'm lookin' for ?)



The songs of dancers fade away

2001 became the way

I'll pay your ransom for today



And it still seems such a waste

One brief life, one brief taste

All the phantoms have been chased

To eternity
