King Apathy Iii — The Byrds

Grease collecting stained-glass rubies Pillowed gently on a strand Bearing looks of frenzied blankness Slowing down their freebie king

Middleclass suburban children Wearing costumes that reveal Blindly follow recent pipers With their mystical appeal Go now

So I'm leavin' for the country to try and rest my head Cause if I hang around this scene too long you know babe I'll be dead

Color changes superficial Apathy still a king Liberal reactonaries Never feeling anything Go now
