El predicador se aburre
Los dados solo salen una vez
Los trucos del mago se descubren
Las brujas ya no creen en el poder.
Unos son el Yin y otros son el Yang
Y aunque no te olvides de tus barrotes
Nos vendría bien ponernos a bailar
La antigua danza del peyote.
Pero Dios, pero Dios
Sigue siendo tu anzuelo
Colgando del cielo.
Ni el oráculo sabe lo que puede pasar
Ni las líneas en el mapa de tus manos
Y a falta de la fe la gente suele inventar
Talismanes embrujados.
La lluvia apagó la hoguera del chaman
La bola de cristal ya no dice nada
Y los chicos de hoy no saben a donde van
Soñando con llegar al Nirvana.
Pero Dios, pero Dios
Sigue siendo tu anzuelo
Colgando del cielo.
Yo he visto al bien con los ojos del mal
Como un ciego feliz en la oscuridad
Nena no sé lo que va a pasar
Si la mentira se disfraza como la verdad
Si la mentira se disfraza como la verdad.
