lyrics

Fashions come and go
The classics never die
Your children steal your clothes
Here's mud in your eye

The hell with all your books
Weighty and obscure
All your precious learning
Will not bar the door
Take this Roman candle
Go down to the street
It's been enough time in your head
Try living on your feet

Barbarians at the gate are singing
See all the colorful gifts they bring
Go outside and meet the new mutations
Maybe we'll live to see the spring

Throw your letters on the fire
Flame has power to inspire
Say goodbye to all of that
Behold our friend the humble rat
Digging up the future
