Tales of the future
Tales of the past
A tale of outer space
Tales tied to the mast
A tale of murderous men
A tale of where and when
Tales of the deep blue sea
And the hearts that have lost their key
My name is everywhere
Fallen to earth from somewhere
My name will bring you joy
Your heart I will destroy
Telling stories
The world goes 'round
But for the underdog
Pull at my heart strings
Tales of dark and light
In my head tonight
I am the underdog
Take care, my earthlings
My life, it has a truth
A truth of worth to you
And imagination's free
I'm an endless nobody
My rhythm has a flow
I'm a part of the undertow
You're capturing the fog
We are the underdog
My words will bring you fear
Will make you cry, my dear
Alone for the most
Already you've seen my ghost
Telling stories
The world goes 'round
But for the underdog
Pull at my heart strings
Tales of dark and light
In my head tonight
I am the underdog
Take care, my earthlings
I am the soul who keeps you captured
I am the one who deals in rapture
Stand and fight yourself through pages
Rectify the world that rages
Slept upon shelves under load
Of the words to which you are betrothed
Clear spaces deep in time
And I give to you my every crime
Telling stories
The world goes 'round
But for the underdog
Pull at my heart strings
Tales of dark and light
In my head tonight
I am the underdog
Take care, my earthlings
