smooth is the road

smooth is the road white under the hard wheel
no one could tell just how the journey's made
the simplest symbol has the best appeal

so many folk remember how to kneel
when they see nobles pass by in parade
smooth is the road white under the hard wheel

slaves know their place and never would conceal
thoughts disobedient from the strong brigade
the simplest symbol has the best appeal

wisdom requires a mode that's more genteel
words spoken in the comfort of the shade
smooth is the road white under the hard wheel

so much is said but little that's ideal
look at the picture and it starts to fade
the simplest symbol has the best appeal

we learn to speak before we learn to feel
but nothing matters when we see the blade
smooth is the road white under the hard wheel
the simplest symbol has the best appeal
