lyrics

THE FOOL HAS A DREAM
Words & Music by Justin Stewart Cotta

tired angels bruised from war
clowns with crooked smiles
trumpets sound for a new king
but his majesty sleeps well tonight
he owns the guns and the times

i hope you like the taste of dirt in your mouth
your not a tragedy just another fool's out
there'll be no eulogies today
all the priests are in jail
the lawyers have all set sail for the moon
chasing your last silver spoon

into an empty wishing well you cry
tears for the poor man's dime
achilles always bathes in hope
the fool has a dream the goose has a joke
golden eggs without a yolk

come clap your weary hands for me
i'll trade your noose for a blue collared leash
all rise your king has spoken
a gift from the chosen
