I tried to make a break, what a fool, I should've known *I never listen* I'm in a cage, an animal, I'm in a cage.
But the reptiles, they won't let me go. I think they want you to stray.
Watch the monkey dance, give 'em a taste. Look at him *he's always smiling*
Help me to escape! *your mouth agape* You foreign tourist... Woe is me, it will be a funeral, a circus, I'll rap on the cell door.
Questions are a fire that needs feeding to survive So just you let those flames die down.
Trained by consequence & the lash it leaves me breathless. Their praise is a poison to us all. In the moonlight... their scars flash like jewelry. Get too precious... get locked up in a cage.
Want to get, gotta risk, any move misconstrued & your screwed. Tongues flash & flick as if they're screamin.
Oh they lie just like any lover, oh do they, those kisses will burn. Under the lights, they snap a finger, you jump, you answer, like a naive hooker with a big dumb smile.
For the reptiles, I guess you'll never know. They won't let you go, cause you're the soup du'jour, that's for sure.
Questions are a fire that needs feeding to survive. So just you let those flames die down. See them reptiles crawl? Getting closer... Why won't someone come to drive them away?
Don't rest too long, it's a mistake you can't take back. Take one lying down for a change. & oh, it's like cleaning up after an orgy when it's over, I wish someone would burn this place to the ground.
