It's not the heat
It's the inhumanity
Plugged into the sweat of a summer street
Machine gun images pass
Like malice through a looking glass

The slackjaw gaze of true profanity
Feels more like surrender than defeat
If culture is the curse of the thinking class
If culture is the curse of the thinking class

Ceiling unlimited
World so wide
Turn and turn again, turn again

Feeling unlimited
Still unsatisfied
Changes never end, never end

The vacant smile of true insanity
Dressed up in the mask of Tragedy
Programmed for the guts and glands
Of idle minds and idle hands

I rest my case or at least my vanity
Dressed up in the mask of comedy
If laughter is a straw for a drowning man
If laughter is a straw for a drowning man

Ceiling unlimited
Windows open wide
Look and look again, look again

Feeling unlimited
Eyes on the prize
Changes never end, never end

Winding like an ancient river
The time is now again

Winding like an ancient river
The time is now again, the time is now again
The time is now again

The time is now again, the time is now again
The time is now again,
The time is now again

The time is now again

Ceiling unlimited
World so wide
Turn and turn again, turn again

Feeling unlimited
Still unsatisfied
Changes never end, never end

Changes never end, never end
Winding like an endless river
The time is now again

Winding like an ancient river
The time is now again

Hope is like an endless river
The time is now again, the time is now again, the time is now again
