People did you hear about the fortune of the greeks The trojan horse has won the war And snatched the golden fleece There are woman screaming So there's breaking down the door Even Icarus was flapping to escape the Minotaur It happened suddenly Athens fell into the sea The dream that ceased to be The death of democracy Well you can live away your life And never pay it back 'Cause money is the law So get your hands behind you back You don't need to know What we have put upon your plate And you don't need no oracle to recognize your fate It happened suddenly Athens fell into the sea The dream that ceased to be The death of democracy Three hundred man of Sparta Fought with sandals on their feet And now they are selling snickers On the corner of the street It's a joke that isn't funny It's a runway without a dog And it's only printed money So just go print some more The truth is plain to see And we knew it Athens fell into the sea I guess we blew it The dream that ceased to be The death of democracy The truth was clear to see The dream that ceased to be The death of democracy
