Wisdom

Magellan

4:25

One man's playing piano and one man's drooling on the floor And one man's making missiles 'cause he wants to prevent a world war One man's disadvantaged just because his skin is black And one man's children starve to death but not the idiot savants No - not the idiot savants No - it can never be the idiot savants One man O.D.'ed on New Year's Eve His dealer too happy to grieve One man killed and another held out (the idiot savants) Stupid wisdom is what this world's about. We're so wise -so knowing -so understanding The questions of life are so undemanding So we grope and we hope that we'll find an answer I must be an idiot or just one hell of a dancer This one sings like an angel but she can't tie her shoes But this one likes everybody -he just can't stand to hear the news So what if my cousin's on the street There's someone there to help him This one don't wanna take care of the other two (the idiot savant) 'cause he's thinking of things he'd rather do One man O.D.'ed on New Year's Eve His dealer too happy to grieve One man killed and another held out (the idiot savants) Stupid wisdom is what this world's about This guy can't even write his name That lady thinks she's going insane This time I'll find another home Not so heavy 'cause I'd rather be alone...

Cranium Reef Suite

Magellan

18:06

Part I. "Youthful Enthusiasm" (Instrumental)

Part II. "Psych 101"

Well a bad day fishin' is better than a good day at work
But a bad day in paradise is a bad deal
Let's say goodbye before we've ever met
You're alone on the shore of cranium reef

No one gets inside my head
No one
I'm a bad part of town on a bad stretch of road.

I'm a bag of tricks in a balancing act
I'm a battered heart and a bath of tears
I'm no bank and no barrel of monkeys

You're alone on the shore of cranium reef.

No one gets inside my head
No one
You're a band of gypsies and a band of thieves

Now you're burning in the sun and you've washed ashore
Don't try "psych 101" on me - we've been there before
I've got a cold embrace at the cranium reef
Trust me you're all alone at the cranium reef

Part III "Primal Defense"

Heart and mind may disagree
But I'm growing old
Too far down the road to change now

'cause you speak to me but youth's on your side
you're so much more than I care to find

What is sacred? What is profane?
Your approach is near and there's something
I fear inside of you -reminding me like a mirror that shows
My past that died long ago

No closet full of skeletons
Can bring me out here

I've got a cold blank stare so don't wait
I've got a colder embrace

You're an Ivy League amateur
"I mean no one comes in here ever"
No one comes in here

No one. No one.

No one passes cranium reef
Not even I can look at my grief
Don't come to me pretending you're wise
I am a man who can see what is real
And is fear what is real?

Stranded on cranium reef
Alone with your thoughts you can drink with your grief
You color your lies with a cool motif
Stranded on cranium reef

Lost at cranium reef
At my coral barrier of disbelief
You're a cold hard future with no relief
Brutal reality at cranium reef

I am a bitter pill to swallow
I am a bittersweet memory
You need me like a hole in the head
Now show me that our "body" is real

We need conversation 'cause I got a case of the blues
And I'm a burned out bridge that nothing here...nothing
can rebuild...no, no, no, no.

I am a bitter pill to swallow
I am a bittersweet memory
You need me like a hole in the head
Now show me that our "body" is real

We need conversation 'cause I got a case of the blues
And I'm a burned out bridge that nothing here...nothing
can rebuild...no, no, no, no.

But I'm growing old
Too far down the road to change now

Every Bullet Needs Blood

Magellan

6:43

Dredging the world of memory
Dank and dirty as darkness descends
I can not see the moon tonight
There's a mist upon the land - and it doesn't feel right

Hush my child, I'll give you a clue -
Be careful young friend
The keeper is a prisoner too

Well, I went with the riders of Nebadon
To the battle of right and wrong
But the sun has been down for a month now
All the wrong that I've done... maybe I'll catch one

Every bullet needs blood
Every bullet needs blood

Man's inhumanity or God's insanity
Such a world as this -
Planet prison or cosmic vision?
We'll survive a sure fire miss...

Who sells the bullets? - who sells the guns?
Has the warden left for the rest of the day?

Every bullet needs blood
Every bullet needs blood
Fire at will...
Every bullet needs blood
Hell to pay...

Hush my child, I'll give you a clue -
Be careful young friend
The keeper is a prisoner too

Father, give me a sanctuary
Don't you see what they'll do to me?
Father, Father please forgive me!!!
Every bullet needs blood...

Like a lamb I was led to the slaughter
I had no choice but to fight
I was played like a pawn
There's blood in the water

Every bullet needs blood...

Every bullet needs blood (every bullet)
You say love is the answer to everything
Well, I've got my doubts you know
Father, please forgive me... (x3)
