Blister On The Moon

(álbum: Taste - 1969)

Everyone is saying
What to do and what to think
And when to ask permission
When you feel you want to blink
First look left and then look right
And now look straight ahead
Make sure and take a warning
Of every word we've said

Now you lay you down to sleep
Make sure and get some rest
Tomorrow is another day
And you must pass the test
Don't try and think too different
Now what we say is best
Listen little man
You're no better than the rest

Don't lay beside the wayside
All around the road we've set
Smile and look happy fool
Or we'll throw you in the wet

Now if you learn your lesson well
And step upon the line
Save your breath until forever
We should get along just fine
We'll bend your heart until it breaks
Make sure you feel no pain
We'll be the one to crush you
And give you to the rain

But now you want to run away
Oh can I see you run
Run across the frozen air
Try resting on the sun
And if you feel it burn you
Don't yell out in pain
Or wish you had a velvet sponge
Full of soothing rain

So let's have that stiff upper lip
Now take a long deep breath
Close your ears you cannot hear
The rules are all pre-set
You thought we were illusions
But we meant the word we said
We're in command, you tiny fly
We'll crush you till you're dead
