Letra de Hopeful Assassins of Zeno
Get tired of coming in from the mountains every year Find some place to set up shop around here Spread out a little, circulate A log that floats down river Will surely take on weightMeet some people Make some friends How long 'til we get sent back to the mountains? It all dependsOn the hopeful And the cunning And the faithful The well-positioned Filthy but gracefulGet familiar with affairs of state Foretell the future Get a pretty good success rate Notch some wins, take some lossesBe nice to the guys who wear necklaces with crosses They will stab you in the back You gotta turn the other cheek You gotta learn to love Jesus, so to speakLike the hopeful And the cunning And the faithful The well-positioned Filthy but gracefulReal filthy, think about getting clean Even hear the soldiers talk about it, down at the canteen Little kings keep coming, one another's head Which is exactly how the portends readWatch with wonder Fail to discern These people never learn How long until the snake devours its tail?Longer than we think Still it's gotta happen sometime Until then, raise a drinkTo the hopeful And the cunning And the faithful The well-positioned Filthy but graceful
