Lyrics Kafka Jones - MEXICO CITY RAIN

TO THE DREAMS OF PASSING COMETS
OF ALL MISTERIES UNSOLVED
TO THE BEARING OF A COMPASS
THAT IS SPINNING ON THE GROUND
THEY WILL GUIDE US THROUGH THE PITS
OF THEIR ELLUSIVE POLITICS
THEY WILL PAWN OUR INDEPENDENCE
TO GET STONED

AND OUR PAST IS WELL PRESERVED
IN OUR COLLECTIVE INTELECT
AND WE THINK WE DONT DISERVE
WHAT OUR FUTURE HAS PREPARED
ITS A RACE BUT NO ONE IS RUNNING
ITS A WAR WE WILL NOT FIGHT
WE WILL STAND UPONG OUR DORWAY
STARING BLACK INTO THE NIGHT

BUT WE’LL NEVER SEE TOMORROW
IN THE MEXICO CITY RAIN

WHEN THE PROUD WENT TO THE STABLES
THEY WERE SLAUGHTERED BY THE PIGS
THEY CAME BACK WITH COATS AND TIES
WITH THEIR RUSTY ARMS THEY SIGNED
AN AGREEMENTE WITH THE MONGRELS
TO BUILD THEIR CASTLES ON YOUR LAWN
NOW THEYRE BUILDING UP A WALL AROUND YOUR HOME

BUT THEY’LL NEVER SEE TOMORROW
IN THE MEXICO CITY RAIN

NOW YOUR WAITRESES ARE WAITING
BUT YOUR SERVANTS ARE ALL GONE
THEY SLIPED THROUGH THE CRACKS OF MIDLE CLASS
THEY ARE ALL HEADING UP NORTH
TO THEIRS HOPES IN CLOUDS OF OPIUM
THROUGH A LONESOME DESERT STORM
BUT YOU KNOW IT WONT BE LONG BEFORE
THEY PUT THEM ON A BUS AND SEND THEM HOME

AND THEY’LL NEVER SEE TOMORROW
IN THE MEXICO CITY RAIN

WHEN IT ALL STARTED TO CRUMBLE
IT IS REALLY HARD TO SAY
BUT THE DUST ON EVERY GAMBLER
AND THE PICTURES ON HIS WALL
THEY REVEAL THE LITLE SECRETS
OF THE METHOD IN HIS GAME
AND TONIGHT WELL BE THE GAMBLERS
IN OUR LITTLE MASCARADE
AND TONIGHT WELL SEE THE FIREWORKS AGAIN

BUT WELL NEVER SEE TOMORROW
IN THE MEXICO CITY RAIN
