goddess of democracy

Lyrics

the goddess of democracy arrived a little bit late, but she danced with flair across the square outside the palace gates, her hair piled high into the sky on bruised and bloody toes, she bared her breast and cried aloud "sometimes that's how it goes", the goddess of democracy, she really showed some nerve, callin' out her old lover hypocrisy, with these immortal words, all we need are hearts to bleed, and a fresh new coat of paint, so let's all drink to socrates, and get wasted with the saints, talk about freedom boys, wouldn't you love to have some now, when you gonna make the choice, the golden calf or the sacred cow?, the paranoia prophecies, require we sedate, so i hid my dreams and my memories, before it got too late, i won't deny i like to cried, i guess it was her fate, the goddess of democracy burning at the stake, talk about freedom boys, wouldn't you love to have some now, when you gonna make the choice, the golden calf or the sacred cow?, the goddess of democracy was bound to take a fall, she almost landed on top of me, crown of thorns and all, she blew a kiss then shook her fist, and danced into the flames, saying "follow me i'm democracy, and i'll be back again",
