FIRE DOG: Music
2004
(FIRE DOG 
)
)2006-06
This song was inspired by the presidential debates which came to St. Louis in the autumn of 2004. The year 2004 was also the year of the monkey in the Chinese Zodiac.
I saw two monkeys on TV
Both said they want us to be free
But none would hear a guilty plea
to show how strong they're supposed to be
I've been waiting
Please show me a sign
Cause I've been taken
By these modern times
I saw two monkeys on TV
They came to my own home city
One year past 2003
A curse from which no one was free
Something is shaken
Please show me a sign
Cause I've been taken
By these modern times
The planet is trembeling
I see the parts are breaking down
The ghosts are hovering
Like the leaves floating to the ground
A restless pressure building
As the humans choose their side
All wish their emptiness filled
And that these changes make us light
May these changes make us light
