On To The Next Cause

A naked mind, open to whatever you find A tabula rasa for the cause de jure Treachery the crime at the polarized time When the banners switch colors once more Whatever you say, I’ll give you my word I’ll hear out your side to which I’ve been lured I’ll share my own story and give it a twist That all along, baby, I held up my fist And if we should lose I will try to be silent Enemy of the state, you say? Couldn’t define it I’ve been a tabula rasa for as long as I’ve fed On the fellows and cynics asleep in my bed A naked mind, oblivious to the thinning line That separates the flock from the pack Our time will be now, unless they should bow We’ve got our own cause to attack And it’s never more real then it gets right here Never so important to be sincere And frankly it’s dishonest But forget about the conscience As you’re onto the next cause And if we should lose I politely decline it Enemy of the state? Date it and sign it I’ve been a tabula rasa for as long as I’ve said I'm as fresh as the day I'll be dead
