Lyrics
FRANKENSTEIN IN EDEN
Created from the fire of insatiable desire,
To control his environment.
While more is better all is best;
He can not be detoured from his beloved progress.
He seeks the power to devour the tools to rule;
He's a megalomaniac with a heartless cool.
Frankenstein in Eden. Frankenstein in Eden.
Just a little monster with a dream.
Behind his steel blue eyes he's completely mechanized.
He can barely recognize the truth.
Indigenous beware he will steal your lands and swear that,
God gave him the rights to it.
He's got the honey of money a style of denial;
He's a savage one-eyed Jack with a poker face smile
Frankenstein in Eden. Frankenstein in Eden.
Just a little monster with a dream.
Frankenstein in Eden. He's a God if only in his own mind.
Frankenstein in Eden. It's a crime that there's only so much time.
To rape and pillage in the Global village.
He will leave the world a little less livable for all of us.
Nothing else matters but his own internal chatter.
He's as mad as a hatter in Wonderland.
Condemned to ignore his tendency towards war,
He's numbed by his own torment.
He's got the power to devour the tools to rule,
And he doesn't give a damn about the golden rule.
Frankenstein in Eden. Frankenstein in Eden.
Just a little monster with a dream.
Just a little monster, a monster with a dream.
Just a little monster with a dream.
