Marx had an idea from the confusion of his head
Then there were a thousand more waiting to be lead
The books are sold, the quotes are bought
You learn them well, and then you're caught
In another's left, another's right, another's peace, another's fight
Mussolini had ideas from the confusion of his heart
Then there were a thousand more waiting to play their part
The stage was set, the costumes worn
And another empire of destruction born
In another's name, another's aim, another's fall, another's fame
Jung had an idea from the confusion of his dream
Then there were a thousand more waiting to be seen
You're not yourself the theory says
But I can't help your complex pace
For another's hope, another's gain, another's loss, another's gain
Sartre had an idea from the confusion of his brain
Then there were a thousand more indulging in his pain
Revelling in isolation, and existential choice
Can you truly be alone when you use another's voice
Another's lies, another's truth, another's doubt, another's proof
The idea born, in someone's mind,
Is nurtured by a thousand blind
Anonymous feelings, vacuous souls
Do you feel the confusion, your lack of control?
Lift your arm to write a name
So caught up in the identity game
Who do you see? Who do you watch?
Who is your leader? Which is your flock?
Who do you watch? Who do you watch?
Who is your leader? Which is your flock?
Einstein had an idea from the confusion of his knowledge
Then there were a thousand more turning to advantage
They realised that their god was dead
So they reclaimed power through the bomb instead
It's another's code, another's brain, they'll shower us all in d**hlier pain (?)
Jesus had an idea from the confusion of his soul
Then there were a thousand more waiting to take control
The guilt is sold, forgiveness bought
The cross is there as your reward
It's another's blood, another's pain, another's pride, another's shame
He watched how to distance (?), from the side you have chosen
Who's answers serve you best, you will save you from division
Who'll give you an exit and a comfortable cover
Who will take you near the edge, but never drop you over
Who do you watch? Who do you watch?
Which is your leader? Which is your flock?
Who do you watch? Who do you watch?
Who is your leader? Which is your flock?
