The Fool Plays On Lyrics

dad saw a man in Vietnam
put the barrel of his gun
in between the legs of a little girl
Vietnamese
she was the enemy of the king

empires crumble but the fool plays on
es que esta extranjero
unconscious and upside down
hasta otro dia

look at all the people with their circus and bread
they lie in a lie and call it a life
and they work to forget that every thought in their head
is rigged from the tier above and not the heavenly one

I'm one with the sun in more ways than one
and if you want to be free
if you even know what that means
it's a long long row

empires crumble but the fool plays on
es que esta extranjero
unconscious and upside down
hasta otro dia

dad saw a man in Vietnam
throw the barrel of his gun in between the legs of a little one
just for fun
she was the enemy
we are the enemy
