Blind Guides (from "Standard Of Love" – 2003)

(Chorus:) Blind, oh, blind guides of the blind

deep is the ditch you` ll both wind up in

Truth you won` t find in the closed

rejecting mode your mind` s in

1. You` ve all been fast asleep too long,

repeating all the same old songs

On your pews on Sunday morning,

you dispised to heed the warning

You preferred to keep on yawning,

refused to see the new day dawning

Truth, the light & I` ll repeat:

Now you` ll have to face the heat

2. Killed the prophets through the ages,

persecute the wise & sages

Burned a million sacred pages,

locked your pupils up in cages

There` s no war you wouldn` t wage

to try to blot out in your rage

The truth, the light & I repeat: Now you` ll ... ( Chorus)

3. Rich man, yeah, but pauper? No!

That`s the way you chose to go

Soon you`ll feel the mortal blow

of one who`ll reap what they have sown

A better way you once were shown

but refused to even so, Truth ...

4. Will there be a second chance

after you`ll have paid the dance?
