(BILLY:)
Any dolt with half a brain
Can see that human kind has gone insane
To the point where I don't know
If I'll upset the status quo
If I throw poison in the water main
Listen close to ev'rybody's heart
And hear that breaking sound
Hopes and dreams are shattering apart
And crashing to the ground
I cannot believe my eyes
How the world's filled with filth and lies
But it's plain to see
Evil in side of me is on the rise.
(PENNY:)
Look arou nd
W e're living with the lost and found
J ust when you feel you've al most drowned
Y ou find yourself on so lid g round
And you be lieve there's good in ev'rybody's heart
Keep it safe and sound
With hope you can do your part
To turn a life around
I cannot believe my eyes
Is the world finally growing wise?
'Cause it seems to me
Some kind of harmony is on the rise.
(PENNY, BILLY:)
Take it slow
Anyone with half a brain
He looks at me and seems to know
Could spend their whole life howling in pain
The things that I'm afraid to show And suddenly
Cause the dark is everywhere And Penny doesn't seem to care
I feel this glow
That soon the dark in me is all that will remain
And I believe there's good in ev'rybody's heart
Lis- ten close to ev'rybody's heart
Keep it safe and sound
And hear that breaking sound
With hope you can do your part
Hopes and dreams are shattering apart
To turn a life around.
And crashing to the ground.
I cannot believe my eyes
I cannot believe my eyes
How the world's fin- ally grow- ing wise
How the world's filled with filth and lies
And it's plain to see
But it's plain to see
Rapture in- side of me
Evil inside of me
Is on the rise
Is on the rise
