I've been a bug for a while The kind who gets crushed Under a shoe with a smile Oh how important it was To get some approval And maybe gain your applause So very skilled and keen At making up stories That are both vile and obscene Lies are just a point of view Trust in distrust And all your dreams will come true Your golden showers drench our minds We soak it up and fall asleep blind Who is cool and who is brave? Who is the fool and who's the slave? Hold me mother Hug me father Let's dry our faces My sisters and brothers I felt quite shaken, not stirred Now look at this fist while I raise up my third For you Only you (Raise your third!) (Raise your third!) Your golden showers drench our minds We soak it up and fall asleep blind Who is cool and who is brave? Who is the fool and who's the slave? Hold me mother Hug me father Let's dry our faces My sisters and brothers
