Adventures In Utopia

Something tells me when something's wrong
Seems like it's been such a long,
Long time since i felt that one
You have your ways and i have my ways
And like the back of my hand i know it
And i don't have to try to make you show it

You don't have to show me how
'cause it's second nature to me now
Something's taken hold of me somehow
'cause it's second nature to me now

Nobody must explain to me your way of communication
Give me the time to understand
I always come around

I have my ways and you have your ways
And we need no elaboration
We can just enjoy that sweet sensation

There ain't no reason why you let me wait
Just give me up and i will go
Let's set it straight
Got a right to who i am
And if i don't fit your plan then set me free

But you refuse to set me free
And you deny me of my needs
You have me under lock and key
Just set me free just set me free

You never cared for what i had to say
It's just because you got to have it all your way
Well i ain't no superman

If that's what you demand then set me free
Couldn't you please just set me free
You get your fun just hurting me
If this is how it's going to be
Just set me free just set me free

Now i deserve to be as mad as hell because
I just don't get it
I place myself in your hands to fall
But i'm not quitting (no)
Feels like the time we spent was going to waste
Sooner or later it's goodbye we're gonna say
'cause you just don't give a damn
So go find some other man and set me free

Just don't refuse to set me free
You can't deny me of my needs
Just turn your head to hear my plea
Just set me free just set me free

Couldn't you please just set me free
You get your fun just hurting me
If this is how it's going to be
Just set me free just set me free

Moses went into the desert
Moses came back with the law
Jesus went into the desert
God only knows what he saw
Hitch up your ass and your camel
Fill up your skin at the well
Roll up your tent, whisper your prayers
Are you ready to ride through hell

Caravan moving through the night
Sleeping in the light of day
Caravan spinning through the void
On our way to anywhere
Caravan time is just a joke change is all we
Understand
Caravan life is a mirage,
Only a mirage dancing on the desert sand

How i recall all the mountains
How i remember the farm
Oh how i miss the big city
With a pretty girl on my arm
Sell my best friend for some water
Cut off my leg for some shade
Sunburn these thoughts from my memory
If i live i will be remade

The sand is like a razor
Slashing at my face
Everyone's in panic but you can't see any place
It's a sand storm, taken by surprise
Hide beneath your wrappings and cover up your eyes

Well i lost my kit and camel
Maybe i will die
Feel so lost and helpless and i think i'm gonna cry
It's a sand storm, nothing you can do
No one knows if it will last
No one knows if you will make it through

It's been so long without water
Vultures are filling the air
Where is that bloody oasis
Must be around here somewhere
Time for some strong meditation
Time for the ultimate change
Time to make peace with your maker
Everything has been prearranged

I blink my eyes and then it happens again
I lose my way but i discover a friend
It's a typical day on the road to utopia

I walk along until my feet are sore
I rest a minute then i walk some more
There's no time to delay on the road to utopia

And my destination is the unknown
But i'm never far away from my home

It shines like laser light
It's in my dreams at night
'cause i've been all my life
On the road to utopia

I will be there to share your tragedy
I know that you would do the same for me
It's no trouble at all on the road to utopia

When day is over and i'm trying to sleep
It comes so easy 'cause i'm not counting sheep
I am counting the smiles on the road to utopia

And i may lose my way again and again
But i'll cross that borderline in the end

Trouble trouble trouble whirling all about
But if we stick together we can stick it out
Will we ever find the loves we lost again
Does this crazy journey ever have an end

And will i find what i'm after
Do i know what i'm after
Guess i'll join in the laughter
On the road to utopia

Sometimes i wonder if i'm still alive
How much abuse can someone stand and survive
How long i've waited for this day to arrive
When i won't be a fool no more

Nobody knows how you push me around
Nobody sees how you treat me like i'm your clown
I never made a sound

It's the very last time you will get on my case
It's the very last time 'cause
I won't be a fool no more
It's the very last time you will step on my face
It's the very last time 'cause
I won't be a fool no more

I still remember the look in your eyes
Just a reflection of the things you despise
But sooner or later i've got to get wise
And i won't be a fool no more

Nobody sees how you treat me like dirt
Nobody knows just how badly a man can hurt
You've got a lesson to learn

I can still feel the sting of your words
But i won't cry no matter how much it hurts
My head may go crazy, my heart it may burst
But i won't be a fool no more
No i won't be a fool no more

Transmission...engine...he's outa control, look at
The screen there, i can't control the trajectory of

Mad men, metal machines

Circa 1995, he did the show, no one's alive
By fall of 1999, [...], look at it shine

Mad men in metal machines
Well look out for the ones with the energy beams

All the joys of working overtime
[...trying to... all of your lives]
Slipping into girls and boys

Better make your move before it's too late

Put away your wheelchair and cane, that you don't need
Recall that you've been changed
Relax, relax don't bend your mind
[... things will be fine]

Mad men in metal machines
Well look out for the ones with the energy beams
Look at all those men
Watching everybody on the video screen

Watch out for the ones with the energy beam
