Chameleons

Why does everyone wear masks
Why does everyone dress up
Chameleons in action

There's a species in danger of spreading
That grows in a second at lightning speed, individual
Anonymous out of necessity or just for kicks, it’s the same

Chameleons, humanoids like you or me
Hide behind the skin of a man
And change on a whim
Color, scent, personality
Morality, religion, and sexuality

They change masks for their convenience
They adapt to humiliate themselves, they say for survival, think
What’s behind the image that your mirror reflects
Are you you or just that, another chameleon?
What today holds a flag that tomorrow it will hate?

What will it be?
Evolution, opportunism, it’s all the same, this time
I just want to point out the vice, of my nation
And make it clear that there’s no better disguise
Than being yourself
Being as you are, without having to see things with cynicism
You know, that’s why I tell you

The chameleon has arrived!!!
It’s here, it’s here, it’s here, it’s here
It took over your mind and transformed you
Turned you into one more of the beings
That camouflage among thousands of colors
And are lurking, like thieves
Like thieves, the chameleons

The bubble is filled with mixed beings
Half angel, half demon but in the same
Bodies I met yesterday
Only, today I no longer understand
The why of the mutations
The transformations in attitude
Today the queen of hearts
Wields the club of the king of wands
Mixing the beautiful with the bizarre

The egg of a chameleon has been gestated
It’s been incubated in your being and transformed you
Into a specimen of the new world
2001 keeps adding, acting, recruiting
Spreading the virus and corrupting the healthy
No, no, no sir, you can’t be on both sides
You’re good or you’re bad
You’re tough or you’re soft
Simply

You’re a chameleon, dude!

The chameleon has arrived!
It’s here, it’s here, it’s here, it’s here
It took over your mind and transformed you
Turned you into one more of the beings
That camouflage among thousands of colors
And are lurking like thieves
Behind all your colors
A chameleon.
