You Don't Understand

Drown the soul and through the eyes

You'll see a future so cold and lonely

Hunt the tiger and kill the jungle

How money cooks inside us all

You don't see and you don't hear

So you don't understand

Ill divides and ill defeats

You'll kiss the fountain and foul the river

Describe a scene, enact a change

The future needs some firm direction

But you don't know and you don't care

So you don't understand

Some believe you dance forever

Some believe you never change

History takes us up the river

Through the trees and far away

You can buy your love and buy your glory

But I believe that you don't understand

Crystallise and crack to pieces

Chantilly lace is good for no one

Down the soul and through the ages

How money's cooked inside us all
