The Face

[Verse 1]
They arrive on a sunny day
Offering the residents a better way
Before you know it, you're in line
And chanting refrain
They reel you in
And then they drown you out

[Verse 2]
First, they tell ya
"You're gonna lose your soul"
And then they tell ya
"Find another home"
And then ya take a good look around
And they stole your rock and roll
And once it's gone, you'll never get it back

[Chorus]
One thousand Les Pauls
Burning in a field
What rabid religion
Poisons their minds?
One thousand Jazzmasters
Thrown into the sea
What measure of madness
Governs their time?

[Post-Chorus]
All right

[Verse 3]
In the beginning
There was void
The hand moved over
Then there was noise
Fire and water
Heaven and stone
Radio kings
Hammer and throne

[Chorus]
One thousand Les Pauls
Smolder in a field
What measure of madness
Fastens their hearts?
One thousand Jazzmasters
Sunk down to the bottom of the sea
What rabid religion
Drives them apart?

[Verse 4]
In the beginning
There was void
The face moved over
Then there was noise
Fire and water
Heaven and stone
Radio kings
Hammer and throne

[Chorus 1]
Uncounted Les Pauls
Ascend to the sky
Where there was darkness
Now only light
Uncounted Jazzmasters
Rising up from the bottom of the sea
The wicked are leveled
The righteous are free

[Chorus 2]
Uncounted Les Pauls
Explode and take flight
Where there was darkness
Now only light
Uncounted Jazzmasters
Erupting from the bottom of the sea
The wicked are leveled
The righteous are free
