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

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