Garden of Eden

It's a critical solution
And the east coast got the blues
It's like mass of confusion
Like the lies they sell to you

You got a glass jewed tootache
Of a mental disease
An they be runnin' round back
See 'em line up on their knees
Cause the kiss ass sycophants
Throwin' penance at your feet
When they got nowhere to go
Watch 'em come in off the streets

While they're bangin' out front
Inside their slammin' to the cruch
Go on and throw me to the lions
And the whole damn screamin' bunch
Cause the pissed-off rip-offs
'R' everywhere you turn
Tell me how a generation's
Ever s'posed to learn

The fire's burnin'
An it's outta control
It's not a problem
You can stop
It's rock n' roll

I read it on a Wall
It went straight to my head
It said "dance to the tension
Of a world on edge"
We got racial violence
And who'll cast the first Stone
An sex is used anyway it can be
Sometimes when I look out
It's hard to see the day
It's a feeling you can have it
It's not mine to take away

Lost in the garden of Eden
Said we're lost in the garden of Eden
And there's no one's gonna believe this
But we're lost in the garden of Eden

The fire's burnin'
An it's outta control
It's not a problem
You can stop
It's rock n' roll

Lookin' through this point of view
There's no way I'm gonna fit in
Don't ya tell me what my eyes see
Don't ya tell me who to believe in
I ain't superstitious
But I know when something's wrong
I've been draggin' me heels
With a bitch called hope
But the undercurrent drags me along

Lost in the garden of Eden
Said we're lost in the garden of Eden
And there's no one's gonna believe this
But we're lost in the garden of Eden

Most of organized religions

Make a mockery of humanity

Our governments are dangerous

And outta control

The garden of Eden is just another graveyard

Said if they had someone to buy it

Said I'm sure they'd sell my soul

This fire's burnin'
An it's outta control
It's not a problem
You can stop
It's rock n' roll 

Lost in the garden of Eden
Yeah, we ain't talkin' about no poison apple
Or some missin' rib, ya hear?
Said we're lost in the garden of Eden
And there's no one's gonna believe this
Said we're lost in the garden of Eden 

The fire's burnin'
An it's outta control
It's not a problem
You can stop
It's rock n' roll
