We walk the line of the nocturnal
the righteous
the infected
we are Amblin
we are agnostic
we are power
we are all just rats in the cage
just rats in the cage
you are all just rats in the cage
Can you dig it?
Oh
Can you Dig it?

Because we are
a power hunger machine
feeding on young minds
and new nubile nymphets
with nicotine
nascent
nunnery
can you dig it?

brothers and sisters
and others

and I ask myself
who am I?
well, I am the great pumpkin
I am the alien Yul Brynner

where am I going
and I tell you I don't fucking know
I don't know
and i ask myself
consumed in fire
where am I?
is this Rosemont? What?
Rosemont yeah
where the founding came to set up arena
so the young children could come and rock
yeah
that's right
our great four fathers of Illinois dragged their wagons across the great planes
so we could come here one day and rock
yeah
can you dig it?

we are disaster
we are destruction

may the bed bugs hold you tight
may your feet be weary
and your head full of cabbage
may you know what it means to grow old
may you feel it in your bones
we send you a message of love
of compassion
of understanding
because the fact of the matter is
we stood in the exact same spot where you're standing right now

but we can say that we stood right motherfuckin there

what's in your mind
