Kula Shaker - Death of Democracy Lyrics

people did you hear about the fortune of the greeks
the trojan horse has won the war
and snatched the golden fleece
there are woman screaming
so there's breaking down the door
even Icarus was flapping to escape the Minotaur

it happened suddenly
Athens fell into the sea
the dream that ceased to be
the death of democracy

well you can live away your life
and never pay it back
'cause money is the law
so get your hands behind you back
you don't need to know
what we have put upon your plate
and you don't need no oracle to recognize your fate

it happened suddenly
Athens fell into the sea
the dream that ceased to be
the death of democracy

three hundred man of Sparta
fought with sandals on their feet
and now they are selling snickers
on the corner of the street
it's a joke that isn't funny
it's a runway without a dog
and it's only printed money
so just go print some more

the truth is plain to see
and we knew it
Athens fell into the sea
I guess we blew it
the dream that ceased to be
the death of democracy

the truth was clear to see
the dream that ceased to be
the death of democracy
