KILLING JOKE LYRICS

1. Requiem

Man watching video
The heart keeps on ticking.
He doesnt know why
He's just cattle for slaughter.
The Requiem
The Requiem
The Requieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeem
When the meaningful words
When they cease to function
When there's nothing to say
When will they start plotting against you
The requiem
The requiem
The requieeeeeeeeeeeeeem
Only a hint of religion
Uncensored truths for the novelty.
the sound of breaking glas
this is a reflection
The requiem
The requiem
The requiem
The

2. Wardance

The atmosphere's strange
Out on the town
Music for pleasure
It's not music no more
Music to dance to
Music to move
This is music to march to
do a war dance

A war dance

Look at graffitti
Scrawled on the wall
You know the the reason
Outside the door
You got something
Nasty in your mind
Trying to get out
do a war dance

A war dance

You've opened the pit
Honesty is sick
You try to be honest
Look what you get
The foods run short
And then the money talks
One way out
Your premonition is correct

A war dance

3. Tomorrow's World

Picture - sent back live
Picture - the golden age
Letter - on your doorstep
Called up - for your country

Never no i don't wanna - no

Horror - don't let me go on
Mommy - they'll take his pain away
Carry us - face the music
Called up - for your country

Never no i don't wanna - no

Take - aim - and - fire

5. The Wait

Motives changing
Day to day
The fire increases
Mass decay
I look at the river
White foam floats down
The bodies poisoned
Gotta sit tight

The wait

After awakening
The silence grows
Screams subside
Distortion shows
Mutant thought
Of bad mouthed news
It's just another birth
Of distorted views

The wait

6. Complications

See the sun turn green
From my penthouse window
It's different now
Because you got no shelter
Alienation
By experimentation
Enjoy yourself
This is the new age

Complication

Ransom the birth
Of a new destruction
It's different now
It's what we always wanted
Alienation
Self-destruct
At the count of ten

Complication

See the sun turn green
From my penthouse window
It's different now
Because you got no shelter
Alienation
Enjoy yourself
This is your new age

Complication

7. S.o.36

one man limited room to think
move with the lines in soft fat red
phase one environment experiment
this is your city with miracles spent
so dead
crime of flesh control is joyless
blue white shells will not grow to trees
phase one environment experiment
the smoke on the city with miracles spent
so dead

The primitive way
