Mother Culture - Johnny Crashed
The story begins as you take it all in
Never knowing from where you arrived
And from the moment you live it's all that they'll give
Then one of these days and you've died
But there has to be more said the boy next door
As he wrote down the tales from his day
If I'd known it was this, it'd be something I'd miss
But nobody told me he's say
Disregard all the stories
Disregard all the lies
Mother Culture has so much to hide
Kings and princes, princes and kings
Castles and towers of gold
These are the things worth dying for
It's all in the story we're sold
You know the one, remember it son
How the cow jumped over the moon
And the woman over there just let down here hair
Expecting Prince Charming quite soon
Disregard all the stories
Disregard all the lies
Mother Culture has so much to hide
And all along the way here's what they'll say
With that hollow look in their eyes
Is that all you can do as you move on through
Is to take what you need to survive
And so desperately now you cling to me
And all of those things that we tried
Now sadly my son I'll tell you the truth
Cuz all of those fairy tales lied
Disregard all the stories
Disregard all the lies
Mother Culture has so much to hide
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't bring us in balance again
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't bring us in balance again
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't bring us in balance again
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Reminds us why waiting for kings has to end
Never knowing from where you arrived
And from the moment you live it's all that they'll give
Then one of these days and you've died
But there has to be more said the boy next door
As he wrote down the tales from his day
If I'd known it was this, it'd be something I'd miss
But nobody told me he's say
Disregard all the stories
Disregard all the lies
Mother Culture has so much to hide
