“baby, will you go with me,” he said
“to a brand new city across the sea
to the middle of the desert
where men with names control reality?”

“we’ll eat until we’ve had our fill
and then, babe, we’ll eat more still
so go and get your bags all packed
be careful what you photograph, my dear”

so they left and went far away
now they don’t know what to say
she’s living in a busted car
he’s dying in a dungeon all alone

oh, tell me, what it’s like on the dark side
where nothing is ever what it seems?
oh, tell me, how’s life on the dark side?
oh, tell me, love, are you alive at all?

“don’t you worry, darling,” he said
“i’ll be back when my work’s done”
he sold his land and said good-bye
to his daughter and his son

and so he sought his fortune
where the rich men with names dwell
he left his wife for heaven
and ended up in h-ll

now the lords, the gods of nothing
have him dying on the land
enslaved to the emirates
the pirates of the sand

oh, tell me, what it’s like on the dark side
where nothing is ever what it seems?
oh, tell me, how’s life on the dark side?
oh, tell me, love, are you alive at all?

and if you ask the beauty queen
the girl of only 17
“what’s really going on here?”
she’ll put her face down in her magazine

the rich young man takes unholy pride
while the old man justifies
their lives and how they made them
“don’t you judge us!” he cries

and all those who’ve spoken out
who refuse to fetch the bone
the devil took their tickets out
now they’re prisoners in their homes

the ex-pats from the western world
rarely seem to show remorse
for how they treat the servant cl-ss
those girls aren’t even wh-r-s

credit is a cancer here
it lets the rich men with names steal
every smile has a secret
oh, nothing here is real

we’re all sons of abraham
but we’re nothing at all like him
he dug holes to honor god
we dig holes to hide the bodies

so eat until you’ve had your fill
look at the ground, see what you’ve spilled
throw a cloth and hide the scr-ps
be careful what you photograph ‘round here

oh, tell me, what it’s like on the dark side
where nothing is ever what it seems
oh, tell me, how’s life on the dark side
oh, tell me, love, are you alive at all?

oh, do you like what you’ve seen on the dark side?
oh, can you see anything at all?
oh, god, please shine your light on the dark side
‘cause we can’t see anything at all
