Lyrics for The Mad Stone

Are you coming outside? I can make it a business, I can sell you it Do you live in a mine? A notorious black spot up and coming, I hear Let the wizard-talk come At the peak of Choice Mountain, you've been saving up Are you really this old? I can make it a business Come with me to the Mad Stone (run all night, all night, never get free) Above you (run all night, all night, never get free) Mad Stone (run all night, all night, never get free) Let it control you (run all night, all night, never get free) At the very top, there was a screen that showed a picture of a Man who stood there looking at a picture of a man who stood there Looking at a picture of a picture of a man on a screen And he was looking at another picture of a man who stood there Looking at a picture of a man who stood there looking at a Picture of a picture of a man who was the double of me So you scrimp and you save I got wild in the aisles, son, let me tell you that Did you set me aflame? I can sell you a firehose, put out all of it now Do you think it's all true? Nothing quite so romantic, there's no oxygen I'm a Mountainhead too What is that? A religion? Come with me to the Mad Stone (run all night, all night, never get free) Above you (run all night, all night, never get free) The Mad Stone (run all night, all night, never get free) Let it control you (run all night, all night, never get free) At the very top, there was a screen that showed a picture of a Man who stood there looking at a picture of a man who stood there Looking at a picture of a picture of a man on a screen And he was looking at another picture of a man who stood there Looking at a picture of a man who stood there looking at a Picture of a picture of a man who was the double of me Strange winds are blowing On this mortal plain You get no pleasure from your pleasure centre In your reptile brain The Mad Stone is singing Can you say the same? You get no pleasure from your pleasure centre In your reptile brain Uh! This is the Mad Stone (run all night, all night, never get free) Above you (run all night, all night, never get free) The Mad Stone (run all night, all night, never get free) Let it control you (run all night, all night, never get free) At the very top, there was a screen that showed a picture of a Man who stood there looking at a picture of a man who stood there Looking at a picture of a picture of a man on a screen And he was looking at another picture of a man who stood there Looking at a picture of a man who stood there looking at a Picture of a picture of a man who was the double of me Run all night, all night, never get free
