Kristofferson Kris - Slouching Toward The Millenium Lyrics

It's time for truth the barker said and poured his self a beer

Oh yeah forsooth said Ben the Geek but who'll be left to hear

They've driven off the fools and saints and now they've stole the show

It's all a bloody circus mates and clowns are in control

If that's the truth said Marzipan the Midget from the floor

I know there won't be no demand for Midgets anymore

We used to be a novelty by simply being small

But next to them unholy men now Tiny Tim looks tall

And it's harder to matter at all when it's all comin' down (and it's all comin' down)

You've still got your duty to choose how you live or you die (that's just the way it is)

So many warnings to turn this old rascal around

We better heed 'em while we got the freedom to try

[ harmonica ]

From the bombin' over Baghdad to the burnin' down at Waco

In the television courtroom of our trials we can see

If yow want to kill your parents or cut off somebody's business

All you got to do is make them hate the victim and you're free

Like Manuel Noriega Saddam Hussein David Koresh

And it's harder to matter...

We better heed 'em while we got the freedom to try
