The Dragon Lyrics – Gowan

The Dragon Text

---

(Lawrence Gowan / Eddie Schwartz)

Just a little problem, out of hand
The consequence of supply and demand
Violate the laws of nature
End up with this awesome creature
Another mouth to feed that no one planned
Evil sire, breathing fire
Belching smoke and fumes
Behold the face of doom
We can't stop runnin'
The Dragon's comin'
Fools will still deny the threat is real
Though the jaws are snapping at our heals
We tamed the wilds and raped the forests
Mowed down everything before us
Dressed our dreams in cloaks of chrome and steel
Evil sire, breathing fire
Belching smoke and fumes
Behold the face of doom
We can't stop runnin'
The Dragon's comin'
Death defiant man-made giant
The sum of all we killed
A living toxic will
We can't stop runnin'
The Dragon's comin'
Maybe someday, we can't know when
Life will rise up again
And a new light will shine
On the dark ages we leave behind
Evil sire, breathing fire
Belching smoke and fumes
Behold the face of doom
We can't stop runnin'
The Dragon's comin'
Death defiant man-made giant
The sum of all we killed
A living toxic will
We can't stop runnin'
The Dragon's comin'
Can't stop runnin'
The Dragon's comin'
Can't stop runnin'
The Dragon's comin'
Can't stop runnin'
The Dragon's comin'
The Dragon's comin'
