History Man

Twisted spires and falling fires
The day that I met you
And though we felt so tired
I don't believe that we tried
To call it Waterloo

This is scarier man, it's hysteria and
I need this, history man
I need this, history man

Screaming tyres and burning skies
Give me more than nine
You know I could be in danger, man
It's strange what I really am
When you dig, you'll find

This is serious, man, I am curious and
I need this, history man
I need this, history man

Took the Moskau train, got off half way
So hard, so hard to define
And maybe I mentioned it
But really, redemption is
Learning to march in time

This is fiction, it's just history and
I need this, history man
I need this, history man

This is fiction, it's just history and
Give me a dictionary

I need this, history man
I need this, history man

Nuremburg was a killer, remember

I need this, history man
I need this, history man

Passchendaele had a crazy baby
