Seven Days

Seven days

Seven days to build this “perfect” world

So beautifully unfolded, fat baby on your lap

Seven signs before you’d lose your cool

Obnoxious, pompous fool?

I’d say you’re full of crap

So you’re still selling the Paradise scam?

While keeping a hell of a poker face

Well, nothing’s really changing at all, so I’ll be damned, boy

Thank you for those seven priceless days

Seven

Please, don’t be a stranger, look inside my life

Full of it? As you are, with a touch of pride

Cut me open, rip me up inside

What’s the matter? Busy? Blinded by the light?

Zooming in on the shores of Paradise

Those billboards full of lies

Unchaining gates of Hell

Tears of joy on salesman’s pretty face

He’s screwing us with grace

I hope I’ll live to tell

I hope, live to tell

Hell or heaven, the same merry-go-round

Pieces of one puzzle, cut ‘n’ paste

Tell me, is it really the best way which you’ve found

While sitting on that holy ground

Wear that shiny, golden crown

For seven unforgettable days

Seven days

Seven deadly sins, those remarkable days

Seven days
