Seers

Visionary for hire
Your eyes seem lit with fire
You speak of things much higher
Your job is a quagmire
Wisdom wants you to try her
Too often you find yourself the liar
Visionary for hire.

Nobody knows
Nobody cares (Or do they)
But see your judgment goes
Is it really so fair? (but hey)

When you get paid,
Man, you got it made
People say you set them free
Do they realize? (do they see)
This visionary works for a fee.

Visionary for hire
Where do you get your fire
You talk of things much higher
You’re stuck in a deep mire
To blind to wisely apply her
You’re trapped in a circle of liars
Visionary for hire.

Nobody goes
Nobody dares (or do they)
But your sense of right flows
By the man who pays the fare (but hey)

When you get paid
Man, you got it made
People say you set them free
Do they realize (do you see)
This visionary works for a fee...
