The Idiot, The Lion And The Candlemaker

from King Of The Moon by Largy Baan

/

lyrics

The idiot talks out of his brilliant mind
He doesn't have friends because he leaves them all behind
He whines and he moans
Complains and never attends
To the meaning of the moment
Oh no no no!

The lion surfs among the stars
Crashing parties, getting flung out of bars
And he sharpens his claws
Never leaving his cage
He doesn't engage
He doesn't engage

"Ho ho, it's a bit of a shame
You can't grow up
And learn to play this game
Go chase your stupid dream
You're just a child"

The candle-maker draws the moth to the flame
He doesn't really know his mind, or his name
But he still carries on with the flame until dawn
And his mind is gone
His mind is gone
