When your position remains fixed, my dear
Results can be mixed, I fear
There's a stasis
No new ideas and no new faces
Misadventures and far flung places
Don't get me wrong, it's not dull
But if you stay here long enough, I feel we'll always be this way
And if you're screwing up your face, oh, won't it always stay that way?
Always be this way
Will we always stay this way?
You know there really isn't much preventing
The way you see the world cementing
There's a stony creeping
Cradle to grave or forever weeping
Rounded on all sides, you're forever sleeping
Promise to resist until you die (resist until you die)
Promise to resist until you die
An object set in motion (object set in motion)
The arbiter of time (arbiter of time)
The unexpressed emotion (unexpressed emotion)
Capital crime (capital crime)
So pick a random number (pick a random number)
Making sure it's prime (making sure it's prime)
Pick a random number between one and one hundred and nine
