The Most Dangerous Of Men Lyrics

The Most Dangerous Of Men lyrics

What overwhelms an orator so fine
A leader sharpening his tongue until the
end
The voice for raising hell
In the minds of uncounted crowds
Now falters under stress
The most dangerous of men
The most
dangerous of men on Earth
The stranglehold of life is tight as drying
leather
Round his neck
The well scrubbed hand now motions to
subordinates
To share his death
And brandishing his words like virgin
sabres
High above his head
The venom of experience
Dies
peacefully in bed
The dream releases all aggression
And twists his
nightmare to its first confession
Heavy guarded eyes
And outside
threats that creep inside
Our friend is on the other side
The most
dangerous of men on Earth
With no special powers or wealth to elevate
himself
He'll be forever falling last in line
Behind the faceless
millions he betrayed
He made his mark on history
And bore it past the
grave
Our friend is on the other side
The most dangerous of men on
Earth
