Raven Lyrics

Anti-government, anti-capitalism, anti-armament, anti-religion

Always anti-something always full of antsy opinions

Embarrassing to most, crazy to some

More the middle finger than the raising of the thumb

Will suffer no bullshit, spin or scam

Says well it's who I am

Reckless, tactless; more than a bit

Menacing, if anything, to those who're full o' shit

He's a raven, a ravin' lunatic

There's crazy, madness in his eyes

A raven, a ravin' lunatic

Dying to try it on for size

Well, don't try to put anything past him; he'll give you some of what for

Not a violent person really but his aggression is assured

Screaming, shouting, in your face, brash in his youth

It's all about a simple case of passion for the truth

Loves the unrest, any protest, he's there

With a fair assessment of what he thinks is fair

Hot-headed, hard-arsed, hard core

Gotta be more than you have ever bargained for

There are some who try to comfort him; some who sympathize

And some who try to mother him, calm the madness in his eyes

Some who try to follow; say they see what he can see

But he's not pushing anybody's barrow, says I'm doing it for me!

Sights set on oblivion, if that's where it all leads

Wants to change the world he's livin' in and pull out all the weeds

Says to all who feel protected when they do their dirty deeds

Say's someone's gonna get it, someone's gonna bleed

He's a raven, a ravin' lunatic

He's just dying to try it on for size

He's a raven, a ravin' lunatic

And he's there in the mirror right behind my eyes

He's a raven, a ravin' lunatic

But we know that he's not the only one

He's a strange one but he's honest

And he's there inside every one of us

When we get that glimpse of what's really going on

He's a raven
