| Had a flash of mad inspiration,
|
| And just the best list of intention,
|
| Oh but there’s a blood that 'ya need to bleed,
|
| Yes said the mother of invention.
|
| When you’ve had it with the aggravation,
|
| And you’re swamped up in the complication,
|
| Just enough with the frustration, sing!
|
| Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na…
|
| Oh, here it comes…
|
| In my past life I was a Roman soldier,
|
| And yes I once was a Roman slave,
|
| Well I’ve been roamin' all over the ages babe,
|
| Ain’t gonna make it in a just one day, oh no.
|
| When you’ve had it with the aggravation,
|
| And you’re swamped up in the complication,
|
| Just enough with the frustration, sing!
|
| Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na…
|
| Broke my back for the pharaohs,
|
| Rolling limestones from the mines,
|
| But baby I built those pyramids,
|
| Well just’a one brick at a time.
|
| When you’ve had it with the aggravation,
|
| And you’re swamped up with the complication,
|
| Just enough with the frustration, sing!
|
| Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na…
|
| With all your trenches empty,
|
| And all your martyr’s blown,
|
| If you’ve been goin' through that hell,
|
| Then baby just keep going.
|
| Your capitals have crumbled,
|
| And command been overthrown,
|
| When your last stand’s on your last leg,
|
| Then baby just keep going! |
