The finale to the album and also its stompingest track, Wasteland is based on the basic idea that if we are expecting things to go according to plan or if we let ourselves believe in control as something we can keep, then we are living in a wasteland, because not only is the realm of certaintly and control not as fun, but it's also non-existant, as in "Nothing but the dust as your feet." :)
We hope you love this song and we hope you love Conductor!
-The Banditos
lyrics
evened by Chances,
and pawned by The Way;
all your advances,
and nothing to say...
the Beast is a Wasteland
by the side of the street,
that Monster is
Nothing... but the dust
at your feet.
The future foreseen,
It isn’t what’s bound!
Only in the Wasteland,
Can that future be found!
If you cannot see,
You can only but know,
O Rancher of Wasteland,
Where Nothing will grow!
Dry, the driest of thieves, the Sand...
Devouring all that you’ve planned...
Because Plans, And Control,
What a concept: “to Know”!
A Growling is heard,
And all concepts are gone with the blow...
In a Wasteland!
In a Wasteland!
In a WAheeyay-Aheeyay-Aheeyay-Aheeyayasteland!!
Dry, the driest of thieves, the Sand...
Devouring all that you’ve planned...
Because Plans, And Control,
What a concept, a concept: “to Know”!
(A Growling) is heard,
And all concepts are gone with the blow...
In a Wasteland!
In a Wasteland!
In a WAheeyay-Aheeyay-Aheeyay-Aheeyayasteland!!
