Kongos - Hey I Don't Know lyrics

Tears are shed, a shame

I should have known

I should have thought

I could have thought

Before I cast that stone

The waves radiate far and wide

There's a ringing in my ears

For a minute

I think I'm going blind

Tears are shed, a shame

I should have known

The crown weighs heavy

Heavy as I sit back in my throne

I say hey, it wasn't me

I'm just a pawn

But the devil's not into details

Where have all the heroes gone?

Hey I don't know

Why don't you tell me?

The dream is broken

Now the mind must be woken

So what are you waiting for

Tell me what's the hesitation?

What are you waiting for

Tell me what is the delay?

Hey I don't know

The victor earns the title "The Great"

All the mysteries get unlearned

All the history just becomes a string of dates

The hordes overrun in a clean sweep

Destroying everything that was built

Where's the glory in making mothers weep?

Hey I don't know

The dream is broken

Now the mind must be woken

So what are you waiting for

Tell me what's the hesitation?

What are you waiting for

Your special invitation?

What are you waiting for

Tell me what is the delay?

Hey I don't know
