DEUS - The Architect Lyrics
What is the architect doing?He is by the riversideWhat is he thinking out there?He is committing egocideNow isn't that a strange thing?Well to him it feels justWell we guess a person's gotta doWhat a person feels he mustHe said, "I won't throw myself from the pierI'm gonna go home and shut up for a yearAnd when the year is over I'll reappearAnd have a solution""I've reason to believe that what I findIs gonna change the face of human kindAnd all these years before well I was blindThat's my conclusion""'Cause I'm the architect'Cause I'm the architect'Cause I'm the architect"Now the man has understoodThat outer space is overrated and tooAbout all the problems on this earth we shouldWorry now to solve them laterAnd so he's brooding and alluding on a perfect designHe thinks that working on behalf of himself is a crimeHe flushes out by the water, a view so divineHe's the architect of his own fate, a man in his primeHe said, "I won't throw myself from the pierI'm gonna go home and shut up for a yearAnd when that year is over I'll reappearAnd have a solution""I've reason to believe that what I findIs gonna change the face of human kindAnd all these years before well I was blindThat's my conclusion""'Cause I'm the architect'Cause I'm the architect'Cause I'm the architect"And so he drew himself a pentagonThinking it through a geodesic domeFrom the coast of Tahiti, to the hills of RomeStep aside cause the man will take the Nobel prize homeHe said, "I won't throw myself from the pierI'm gonna go home and shut up for a yearAnd when that year is over I'll reappearAnd have a solution""Now if these aspirations bother youWell you are just you, you don't have a clueI'm sticking to the plan I will see it throughLet there be no confusion""'Cause I'm the architect'Cause I'm the architect'Cause I'm the architect"
