janustown - utopia now lyrics

Loading...

millions awake to a rainbow metropolis
pandemonium, disarray
while in a bubble of bucolic order
a rooster summons the day
a young man’s awarded a phd
some sect denounces technology
in between medieval perspective
and the most advanced science on the planet

chorus:
dreamers of a dream tangled in extremes
rooted in a scheme built on contradiction
heed the clarion, blinded by the sun
deafened by the sound: welcome to j-n-stown

moving ahead and embracing the by-and-by
holding on to the way things were
watching the play from palaces in the sky
or cardboard caves in the dirt
health-craze and beauty idolatry
golden arches, bells, kings, obesity
fast food and slow social progress
schizophrenic battles between voices

chorus:
dreamers of a dream tangled in extremes
rooted in a scheme built on contradiction
in the twilight zone limits are unknown
shiny but run-down: welcome to j-n-stown

bridge:
ancient inner battles define the double face of a nation
“make her great again”; reason trumped by human temptation
yesterday – tomorrow: the mandate’s getting lost in translation

chorus:
dreamers of a dream tangled in extremes
rooted in a scheme built on contradiction
scathing reprimand requires knowledge of the land
so throw your blinders down: welcome to j-n-stown
