Once upon a time So many years ago A man and his wife Gave birth to a baby boy Now he's just a man In the middle of a holy war Good and evil Fight for dominance Capitalists bleed the earth, As it grumbles and rusts In the dirt Fallen kings and queens Cry in the night Saying: "I'm so lonely tonight" Once upon a time So many years ago A man and his wife Gave birth to a beautiful girl Forget all the plans Laugthin' as the road maps Blow away Don't neeed to see Where we're going Just need you.
