Yet another tale of rags to riches;
the poor man now up on his feet.
No longer is he digging ditches
but filling them with concrete.
And as the phoenix watches over
this man who she has helped
she cannot help but wonder
if it were all a plan for wealth.
Was this rising from the flames
just one elaborate plan
to multiply the gains
of another selfish man?
�Everyone seems to use me;
it seems a little funny
how people will fall into the ashes
just to make some long-term money.�
So all around she flies,
pulling the needy up and out
but they all seem to tell such lies.
�Oh what�s it all about�
This phoenix is confused,
�Oh what�s with all these plans?
What�s a bird to do
with another immoral man?�
Everyone seems to use her;
it just seems a little funny
how people will fall into the dirt
just to make themselves some money.
It�s silly games like this that can turn a person cynical.
It�s selfish games like this that can turn a bird cynical.
It�s immoral games like this that can turn the world cynical.
Are you happy you corporate drips? You�ve turned the phoenix cynical!
She�s a cynical phoenix; all her trust in man is gone.
She�s the cynical phoenix; all their motives seem so wrong.
