Gandhi 11:40
Centuries remain the same Victory is choosing who to blame Whoever kills the most gets to do it again History Erodes But Love Remains Don't want to be Genghis Khan Don't want to be Napoleon Don't want to be the pride of the Pentagon If you want to be a man Gandhi is the only man to be

The deserts will turn to glass Law and justice will prevail Have a spare to save the footage The relief in success for democracy People are stupid hysterical fools Demand and applaud and consume Destroy all the heretics talking us down We'll create the greatest thing The cities recede to ash Rivers swell with flesh and shale Have a spare to save the footage The relief in success for democracy People are stupid hysterical fools Demand and applaud and consume Destroy all the heretics talking us down We'll create the greatest thing We only humour you because you're so dangerous People are stupid hysterical fools Demand and applaud and consume Destroy all the heretics talking us down We'll create the greatest thing

Visit the school suit; measure up the cannon fodder Bolster up the coffers grabbing funds for all their funeral banners "We made what's gonna kill 'em" They get the job done right but make sure that no-one films them Sell all the weapons to the lunatics and rapists We're an island we're safe...What? You think they can take us? Get yourself some loyalty boy get some priorty boy You think you're too good to die for your hometown? Gonna make you care if you don't Gonna make you proud you're a grunt With all the taxes your folks paid Buying all your guns and your helmet that'll definitely stop the bomb There's always a risk Prosthelise and evangelise But no amount of faith can ever make you wise Don't knock what you haven't tried You can't contemplate truth until your head's untied Almost certainly all the cautiousness lost Hold on Need to find out how much it costs Don't count what you can't get don't expect All that waiting makes for nothing but regret Close the gap closer than that Disclose what rose recommend a larger dose Keep what flows in the protest Next step morose and glows for effect In the smoke that arose when the scandalous Kept us afloat in our various poses We kept on our toes and clambered closer Docile and obese with cerise walls And a love of stickshift Thrift and generosity deserving case Joking and boasts Make the most and store the coasters Gonna need more than food at your funeral Cool the car we'll let it fly Flattened and scattered full of the stolen and the pyrophobic Nebulas of stress with gravity recessed Not in the misery but what shivers as it toasts Blades and chains nothing doing nothing close no plan but God still laughs There's less now kill 'em quick There's less now kill 'em quick There's less now kill 'em quick There's always a risk There's always a risk To record brainwaves subjects must be motionless There's always a risk To record brainwaves subjects must be motionless It's grey to the touch That's no way to dance That's no way to talk That's no way to eat That's no way to stop That's no way to breathe Asking questions of what it's for Banged around and still kicking Heels hurting doesn't matter what you think you thought or what you thought you might have been sure of Flattered and scattered always opining for what you were Stays with Never wears off There's always a risk

You're living in the fattest country in the world So what have you got to worry about? You're the sick man, the whipping boy, the freak So what have you got to worry about? Hold the world to ransom Hiding behind its so obscene There is no almost no maybe no inbetween There is no victory until unstinting respect So obscene Under someone's agenda Until something's askew Ultimate simple answer Until something's anew Take a look at what you want and why you want it You're living in the dullest country in the world So what have you got to worry about? You're the tiniest, the pitiful, the tease So what have you got to worry about? Hold the world to ransom Throwing your weight so obscene There is no almost no maybe no inbetween There is no victory until unstinting respect So obscene Under someone's agenda Until something's askew Ultimate simple answer Until something's anew Take a look at what you want and why you want it Take a look at what you want Take a look at what you want and why you want it
