The time for prophets may come again                                                       

Even though their words are sometimes common knowledge


Their time is near and I can feel                                                                              

That one of these days the satellites will fall


Like blazing comets from heaven                                                                       

With tails of hate and the fury of the masses


All burning, all screaming, all rage                                                                      

Blind rage that makes the wise shudder


And the cameras roll                                                                                                  

Blind rage that gives food to the power hungry


And carries the meal of the people                                                                                   

To their very door


When the skyscrapers kneel at the feet                                                                      

 Of the ones whom the prophets named                                                           

Don't be shocked, don't be surprised                                                                 

 That all that sowing of hate                                                                                                                  

Would lead to such a reaping of blood
