What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
The motorway won't take a horse
2
The wanderer has found a course to follow
3
The traveller unpacked his bags for the last time
4
The troubadour cut off his hand and now he wants mine
5
Oh no, not me.
6
The circus girl fell off her horse and now she's paralysed
7
The hitchiker was bound and gagged, raped on the roadside
8
The libertine is locked in jail
9
The pirate sunk and broke his sail
10
But I still have to go
11
I've got to go, so here i go
12
I'm going to run the risk of being free
13
The magicians secrets all revealed
14
And the preachers lies are all concealed
15
And all our heroes lack any conviction
16
They shout through the bars of cliche and addiction
17
So i've got to go
18
I've got to go, so here i go
19
I'm going to run the risk of being free
20
And in this drought of truth and invention
21
Whoever shouts the loudest gets the most attention
22
So we pass the mic and they've got nothing to say except:
23
"Bow down, bow down, bow down to your god"
24
Then we hit the floor
25
And make ourselves and idol to bow before,
26
Well i can't
27
And i won't
28
Bow down
29
Anymore.
