18.Before The Fall

Got beggars and clerks
Got teachers and kids
Elected men off work
Defrocked preachers forbid

I wonder how they can stand it
Or if they care at all
As they waste the last few days
Before the fall

Homesick prisoners
And party throwers
With all their honored guests
And they're going nowhere

You know I cannot be bothered
Just ain't no point at all
I've done a lot of screaming
But no one would heed the call
Before the fall
