Spin Doctors - Beasts In The Woods lyrics

Let me illuminate my interpretation Which i will try to serve with an illustration All the beasts in the woods Bare their fangs and peddle goods Let us take the diagram, examine it in detail Some channels they are wholesale, some are retail You need only attach the tags To make merchandise of your rags Blessings and plagues descend upon the land Where are the gods to protect us? Think i see a shining hand Let us take the ma**es and use them as our model The rich and poor in their mansions and their hovels Will we have the option to thrive? Will there be a door to survive?
