I'd prefer to think of him as a man of many means
Of powers extreme, exposed to the extreme
Nature's so determined, he may never change his mind
The only possible excuse for pretending to be blind
Petition for a life unknown
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
Petition for a life unknown
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
I can't remember why it is, his motives are mysterious
His anger extreme, exposed to the extreme
Has he a hidden past?
And memories that don't go back
And have to remember what I'm supposed to like
Petition for a life unknown
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
Petition for a life unknown
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
For those who've never had
You keep coming back
You take, take, take away
'Til the very last
For those who've never had
You keep coming back
Take, take, take away
'Til the very last
Petition for a life unknown
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
Petition for a life unknown
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
Petition for a life unknown
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
Petition for a life unknown
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
Of powers extreme, exposed to the extreme
Nature's so determined, he may never change his mind
The only possible excuse for pretending to be blind
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
His anger extreme, exposed to the extreme
Has he a hidden past?
And memories that don't go back
And have to remember what I'm supposed to like
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
You keep coming back
You take, take, take away
'Til the very last
For those who've never had
You keep coming back
Take, take, take away
'Til the very last
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
To all my friends, the censor's shown, no, oh, oh
