King Apathy III

Freaks collecting stained­ glass rubies Till a gently on a strand Bearing looks of frenzied blankness Slowing down their B.B. King Middle class suburban children Wearing costumes that reveal Blindly follow recent pipers With their mystical appeal for now So I'm leavin' for the country To try and rest my head 'Cause if I hang around this scene too long You know babe I'll be dead All the changes superficial Apathy still a king Liberal reactionaries Never doing anything for now So I'm leavin' for the country To try and rest my head 'Cause if I hang around this scene too long You know babe I'll be dead --- King Apathy III - The Byrds
