THE STATe of ABSURD (lyrics/music: Marjan Debaene)

I live in the state of Absurd

Where votes have been cast but not heard

Where pocketfilling politics still rule the world

I live in the state of Absurd


I live in the state of Excess

Where nobody settles for less

Where welfare is fattening and bodies a mess

I live in the state of Excess


To all in the land of Complain

Do you even hear what you’re saying

You all have to much on your Ikea plate

Out here in the land of Complain


We dream of a City of Hope

To get there we dance a tight rope

It’ll take us a while and some of us might die

On our way to the City of Hope


The strong and courageous prevail

The kind and the moderate will fail

On this high rocky road, you’d best be prepared

For this crusade in search of the grail

(instrumental)

Well I walked through the town of Regain

Saw people smiling again

A minute with you is a minute well spent

Here in the town of Regain


Oh but here in the town of Regain

They still have clean air and sweet rain

Oh, a minute with you is a minute well spent

Here in the town of Regain

A minute with you is a minute well spent

Here in the town of Regain
