We are three fine kings of oil and glory In war to fight for ladies And gentleman alike Mounted on a stallion playing polo With clubs in hand we thrust into your life Your mind It's ours you see It's the way it's has to be With our handouts to the poor Around 'eight Can you feel it? We are here to take what we can From the living, from the land For our pleasures we command so much more We are guardians of this wasteland we are making Forsaking and raping until your very end You are free men of course You have power and force You'll never forget it's me who rules your life It's me who rules your life Moonlight, desert air A penny for your thoughts my son So easily Wild nights for all to see A bridge across the river bed Returning from the sea We are moving on a desert plane The children of the wing will feast On all of those who stay The preacher he has his eye on you His words that make the way to heaven He has forced you on your knees And the twilight of another world A door appears before us And some of you go through We're all in the river To move beyond the sea To drink a distant nectar Of humming birds and bees We're all in the river To move beyond the sea To drink a distant nectar Of humming birds and bees - say please The movement from beneath my feet This world is moving slowly From the stronger to the weak The silence is falling over you There was nothing I could do to help you And I watched you fade away When all is said and done There is no light to guide us To shine on everyone The preacher is kneeling over you And he crosses you for comfort With the muzzle of a gun - Bang Bang I lay down for a moment In this place that has no name There was something high above me I could not explain Slowly it descended In the brightness of it's light And it's liquid soon covered my flesh And no matter where I moved to It hovered there instead Does it see me? And it's easy to get lost In a dream that has no end Because you sleep through your life anyway Yet something inside me was moving I'm running as fast as I can Trapped in some smothering film Yet it's only some strange fashion Like a wheel that never turns But we watch it to see if it will I lay down for a moment And the vision disappears The liquid drips on to the floor So I guess that maybe I'm sleeping In an hour or two I will wake Can you free me Now! Can you not feel the heat The sun is on my back And isn't it strange it turned out wet And if I could find a way to say I won't be back Do you remember how we met How could I begin to tell you All the faces I have seen Some were good to me Some were good for me But I've a feeling I've been placed here before Beyond the reach of men Some were hurting me Oh they would not let me be And could you please hold the door The key's under the mat Do you think you could push me through And if I go safely through Put the key right back And lock it up tight and walk away Ah but you can't come in We're all in the river To move beyond the sea To drink a distant nectar Of humming birds and bees We're all in the river To move beyond the sea To drink a distant nectar Of humming birds and bees Won't you say please
