Tip Of The Iceberg

After the circus fades, we are left alone

Both our hearts beat like a metronome

Atop a volcano

But it's hard to sit and watch the mountain grow

Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba-ba

Once the riot starts, no one could see a thing

We overhear the fat man say

"It's the end of the beginning

It's the end of the beginning"

But it's hard to sit and watch the pendulum swing

Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba-ba

Makes no sense, a Rorschach test

A picket fence on which we lay all our clothes

(The world is really round)

That's not the story I heard

(What do you really know?)

We know it backwards and forwards

(Well, it's gonna end anyway)

It's just the tip of the iceberg

Pain in the back, head of a clown

It's too late, it made my skin crawl

It's hard to sit and watch the monuments fall

Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba-ba
