Reconstrucdead - D-A-D

When the fever burns your brain

When your heart has got a name

And you long for generous days

You want a spring in your walk and a smile on your face.

Another day inside the pearl

You could have screamed;

leaving this world

You laugh’n’joke without a care

And bear a depression you can see from the air.

Ride the tail of rhyme

Break the legs of time

— Snap it’s spine.

As a statue wearing complicated clothes

A monument to power, standing, but on reconstrucdead toes

At my feet there’s a plate I haven’t read.

Apart from that — then I’ll be reconstrucdead

A tambourine rings in my blood

The circus' rolling’n’the cage is locked.

So where’s the light — a match that flares

— The pot at the end of the rainbow’s where

Pick your nose as you pick your friends

Or spend a life in fear of the end

To tell a nodding shrink won’t help

— So I say to myself: Hey, get a hold on yourself!

Ride the tail of rhyme

Break the legs of time

— Snap it’s spine.

As a statue wearing complicated clothes

A monument to power, standing, but on reconstrucdead toes

At my feet there’s a plate I haven’t read.

Apart from that — then I’ll be reconstrucdead, reconstrucdead.

My eyes are blind My mind is numb

But my ears begin to hear — to hear the growing hum

Like a statue, jealous of the rush hour

I’m reconstrucdead like a monument, a monument to power

As a statue wearing complicated clothes

Standing high up as a tower now, but still the cracks will — yeah

The cracks will show

A lifetime of frustration — the things that I can’t get

Apart from that — then I’ll be reconstrucdead
