Lyrics

Cat's foot, iron claw
Neuro-surgeons scream for more
At paranoia's poison door
21st century schizoid man
Blood rack barbed wire
Politicians' funeral pyre
Innocents raped with napalm fire
21st century schizoid man
Death seed blind man's greed
Poets' starving children bleed
Nothing he's got he really needs
21st century schizoid man
Written by: Greg Lake, Ian McDonald, Michael Giles, Peter Sinfield, Robert Fripp
