WHIRLWIND
Let's escalate our escape from this centrifuge,
Issue a plea for help and seek some refuge.
More mindless speculation, another "harmless suggestion",
That keeps trailblazing a path of destruction.
Round and round as the wheels rotate,
Offers no absolution but fuels great debate.
Rockin' back & forth, goin' to & fro:
Fasten all the latches, batten down the hatches, here we go...
It's hectic, it's crazy;
It's frantic and frenzied:
Oh no, but oh yeah!
Turned around, been sucked in;
Spinnin' in a whirlwind:
Oh no, but oh yeah!
They build you up to tear you down:
In a media circus, you're only a clown.
So when it all goes wrong or starts to falter,
You get hung out to dry and sacrificed on the altar.
It's the same old vicious circle of supply and demand,
Which I admit is the bit I still don't quite understand.
But when the winds change and the cover's blown,
It's just part of the cycle, part of the cyclone.
Rewriting the rules as if the old ones don't apply,
Being drip-fed whilst being bled dry.
Gotta feed the habit, gotta get your fix,
With a little fabrication just thrown into the mix.
So strong and seductive it takes you hold,
And you can't resist it with the best will in the world.
So whilst sympathetic with this plight,
Still gotta get there, gotta get a hit tonight...
