Synchrocity II - Intellectual

[Intro – Fabio Lione]

Wooo-oooo-ooh

[Verse 1 – Fabio Lione]

Another suburban family morning

Grandmother screaming at the wall

We have to shout above

The din of our Rice Krispies

We can't hear anything at all

[Pre-Chorus – Fabio Lione]

Mother chants her litany

Of boredom and frustration

But we know all her suicides are fake

Daddy only stares into the distance

There's only so much more that he can take

[Chorus – Fabio Lione]

Many miles away

Something crawls from the slime

At the bottom of a dark Scottish lake

[Verse 2 – Rafael Bittencourt]

Another industrial ugly morning

The factory belches filth into the sky

He walks unhindered

Through thе picket lines today

He doеsn't think to wonder why

[Pre-Chorus – Rafael Bittencourt]

The secretaries pout and preen like

Cheap tarts in a red light street

But all he ever thinks to do is watch

And every single meeting

With his so-called superior

Is a humiliating kick in the crotch

[Chorus – Rafael Bittencourt]

Many miles away

Something crawls to the surface

Of a dark Scottish loch

[Post-Chorus – Fabio Lione]

Wooo-oooo-ooh

[Verse 3 – Fabio Lione]

Another working day has ended

Only the rush hour hell to face

Packed like lemmings

Into shiny metal boxes

Contestants in a suicidal race

[Pre-Chorus – Fabio Lione & Rafael Bittencourt]

Daddy grips the wheel

And stares alone into the distance

He knows that something

Somewhere has to break

He sees the family home

Now looming in his headlights

The pain upstairs

That makes his eyeballs ache

[Chorus – Fabio Lione & Rafael Bittencourt]

Many miles away

There's a shadow on the door

Of a cottage on the shore

Of a dark Scottish lake

[Outro – Fabio Lione & Lione Bittencourt]

Many miles away
