No Magic Lyrics - The Gc5

The kids are hungry and nowhere to go 

A thousand distractions, so now you know 

That the burn of youth in the old mens' eyes 

Never put a stop to the alibis 

I've seen the fantasies and heard the praises sung 

All the while looking up from the bottom rung 

Look down, look down and see the broken pieces of humanity 

Beat down, beat down, and crushed by the heel of authority 

There's no magic in your marketplace 

No logic in your design 

It's tragic and commonplace 

The wicked leading the blind 

The kids are restless and nothing to eat 

A thousand fingers to point and a life of deceipt 

The discourse gets so out of place 

As Adam Smith laughs in Harry Browne's face 

That hand is too bloody to be invisible these days 

Blanket comparisons ignore divergence in many ways
