Monochrome, it's a Saturn world Lying beneath the rings And they tell me we don't have a long time 'til our decline All the grown men are set in their ways Shining in the street And they tell me we don't have a long time, a great design Why don't you shame the world Shame it with your words and I'll smile Why don't you shame the world Shame it with words and I'll finally make believe I'll atone for the saddest verse Dry beneath my feet And they tell me I don't have a long time to change your mind All the grown men are set in their ways Shining in the street And they tell me we don't have a long time, a great design Shame the world Shame it with your words and I'll smile We always have the tender words to my mind
