Song | Eirenarch |
Artist | Skyclad |
Album | The Answer Machine? |
作词 : Ramsey, Walkyier | |
You say i'm a free man, | |
But what does that mean to a social security number? | |
A grey suit as sharp as a new guillotine, | |
Bought and paid for while drugging us under | |
Tell me what use is a citizens charter - | |
When blood is the ink for the new | |
Magna Carta? | |
Sci-fi style weapons in feudal societies | |
Fingers on buttons that twich with anxiety [Chorus:] | |
Brought to our knees by the powers that maybe, | |
Don't care if humanity lives or it dies. | |
You're alright | |
Jack - so you pulled up the ladder | |
And hook, line and sinker you swallowed their lies. | |
Now it seems that the truth is not easy to say | |
Mouth stuffed with the goodies they sample. | |
Stripped by their mistresses - tied up and flayed | |
Like pye-dogs that would lead by example | |
Not enough answers - and cash payed for questions | |
Waste paper baskets - filled with good suggestions | |
Show me a promise they made that has lasted | |
Successes have fathers - but failure's a bastard [Chorus:] | |
Brought to our knees by the powers that maybe, | |
Don't care if humanity lives or it dies. | |
You 're alright | |
Jack - so you pulled up the ladder | |
And hook, line and sinker you swallowed their lies. | |
Your Motto was 'in god we trust - all others pay by cash' | |
You hide beneath oak tables when the windows start to smash | |
The natives are revolving open season on the scum | |
Sit back and wait forever for the | |
Eirenarch to come | |
Rich and poor divide the classes, instigate two types of law | |
Making ninteen nineties | |
Heaven feel like 1984 | |
Your finger on the trigger of a 12-bore in the dark | |
When justice knocks upon your door send for the | |
Eirenarch. |
