Long ago in a dusty village Full of hunger, pain and strife A man came forth with a vision of truth And the way to a better life He was convinced he had the answer And he compelled people to follow along But the hunger never vanished And the man was banished And the village dried up and died At a time when wise men peered Through glass tubes toward the sky The heavens changed in predictable ways And one man was able to find That he had thought he found the answer And he was quick to write his revelation But as they were scrutinized In his colleagues eyes He soon became a mockery Don't tell me the answer I've got ideas too But if you've got enough naivete And you've got conviction Then the answer is perfect for you An urban sprawl sits choking on its discharge Overwhelmed by industry Searching for a modern day savior from another place Inclined toward charity Everyone's begging for an answer Without regard to validity The searching never ends It goes on and on for eternity
