v) Don't believe the bastard's lies
Propaganda at every turn
Ch) Stay intelligent - despite your
education
Question everything - reject misinformation
v) Don't just act without a thought
Use the free will you always had
v) Obedience is what they want
Kept in line by your own apathy
Education is a double-edged sword. It is all too easy to forget that state schools,
colleges, universities and media are machines that carry an agenda. They are
sanctioned and controlled by the very people we aim to stop controlling our
lives. This means that whilst learning is vital to an effective underclass it
is easily fucked up by values and ideas you never even realised you held. Use
your brain! We can all see bullshit if we look for it (and that includes the
bias in the so-called alternative media). The simple fact of the matter is,
if it feels dodgy, question it. It's the only life you've got, don't waste it
living their dream, or ignoring your own!
" The important thing about machines is that you use them and don't let
them use you" - John Peel
v) The spectre of death stands astride
the earth
Sepulchral feet planted in the western world
Raining down death on developing nations
The sound of destruction is easily heard
Ch) The whining of bombs falling
to earth - crepitus
The endless drone of industrial process - crepitus
The broken English of industrial summits - crepitus
The agonized screams of starving children - crepitus
v) Every move we make is the scraping
of bone
An endless roar of denial and greed
Like torturers our deeds inflame the arthritis
Like tinitus our ears ignore their need
The slave trade is not over, we just choose to ignore it and have become deaf
to the sound of suffering. Understand this! As part of the western world you
and I are responsible for the pain endured by millions of others. The weight
of our collective greed and appetite for consumer goods is an audible grinding
of bone on bone. The first step to soothing it is to stop ignoring it. I don't
mean token "live 8" gestures, record labels and pop star millionaires
are part of the problem. So are you! Buying a charity wristband doesn't cut
it, we all need to open our ears and change our thinking and actions.
War
Hatred
Extinction
Genocide...........
...........Death
You can't beat a good short song! This one is unfortunately just short. Still
it sort of says it all, a potted history of mankind in 5 words. If you can do
it in less drop us am e-mail. Best entry might win a t-shirt if we can be bothered
to get them made! Alternatively we might steal your idea and make a song out
of it.
v) What the fuck gives you the feeling
We deserve to conquer space
When millions die in pain and squalor
You strive to spread the human race
Pestilence is rife on earth
So you spend billions searching for
An empty canvas to fuck up
Complacent that you are the law
Ch) Run for your life - abandon earth
Spread your disease - abandon earth
v) Running from the inescapable
Leave this landfill site behind
Running from what we create
Abandon earth while there's still time
The arrogance of humankind astounds me. The western world clamors to be the
highest civilization on the planet to the point where it overlooks simple animal
impulse. I.e. helping our species survive (whether that would be a good thing
anyway is debatable!). people die every second of starvation and poverty and
we still manage to find billions of pounds each year to blast our sorry fucking
arses into space and fuck that up too! Wake up! Is your guilt that bad that
you have to leave the planet to alleviate it? What makes you think anyone wants
us out there?
"Earth has, or had, a problem - which was this: most of the people living
on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested
for this problem, but most of these were concerned with the movements of small
green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn't the small
green pieces of paper that were unhappy." - Douglas Adams
v) Don't know where I am
Don't know what to do
Ch) intense, intense, intense confusion
v) Who, what, when, where, why
Who, what, when, where, why
Tell me fucking why
Who, what, when, where, why
Fucked up? Losing the plot? Tell me about it! There are days I can hardly get
out of bed, and others I can hardly find it to get back into!
v) Bogus monarch laid in state
Hearts of straw and heads of oak
Worm holes like a crown of thorns
Adored and forgotten to dust and smoke
Ch) We dispose of you and your heirlooms too
v) Preceded by their fleshy templates
Time and tide sends kings to death
Rot and twist within their crypts
Broken effigies all that's left
Br) Kings will die - as surely as
their memory
Disheveled and dusty - the ragged regiment
In the crypts of Westminster Abbey there lies a sorry collection of wooden effigies
of old kings. Carved for state funerals they used to be stored with the reverence
given to monarchs themselves. Now, in their fucked and decaying state they are
returning to the same dust as the dead kings they represent. I love the fact
that despite all their attempts to be remembered our aristocracy are swept away
by time and insect infestation the same as the folk of this country. Lets hope
the queen gets woodworm too! Fuck them all!
"Tyranny is a diseased government wherein the ruler is a single man who
rules for his own private benefit apart from the will of his subjects"
- Marsilius of Padua
v) Fuck your explanations of a terrorist
threat
Your expectations of attack have never been met
I smell propaganda not invasion plans
Genocide and slaughter wiping blood from your hands
Ch) Don't think you remain blameless
- in the house that bled to death
The ivory tower you built - the house that bled to death
One day your decisions will drown you - in the house that bled to death
In the tide of blood you spilt - in the house that bled to death
Br) Make no mistake, their war on
terror is nothing more than a war of intimidation
Military action and lies win elections. Buying into their shit destroys lives.
Just because our politicians don't actually pull the triggers
Doesn't mean their actions won't come back and bite them
v) As the fear of Arab nations grows steadily higher
Your bullshit throws another on their funeral pyre
Corpses of the innocent lined up in the streets
Like the rows of callous bastards in their Westminster seats
Where has "the war on terror" led us? Where are the invading hoards
of rabid Muslims destroying our glorious democracy? That's right nowhere! So
we've had a spate of suicide bombers in London recently. But they are the result
of "The War On Terror" (TWOT to you and me) rather than a "reason"
for it. The propaganda is no more than political bullshit dreamt up by the wankers
in Westminster. Yeah, terrorism exists and some fanatical loonies will always
be ready to slaughter innocents in the name of their god (carpet bombing Baghdad
for instance!). In the name of "protecting us", politicians bring
in new laws that curtail our freedom and will do fuck all to stop suicide bombers.
How would I.D. cards stop them? Suicide bombers generally carry their passports
with them anyway. Internment for 30 days without any evidence except some copper
saying he reckons you just might pose a terrorist threat in his opinion will
prove a useful tool to quieten dissent in this country. Wait a minute. That
sounds like a trick employed by Saddam Hussein's political police...... Make
no mistake our politicians only give a fuck about one thing: keeping their jobs.
Don't buy it, they are making us die for their careers!
v) Racist fucker, holy cunt
Religion built on hate and death
Nailed and burnt upon the cross
Char and twist 'til nothings left
Blistered flesh, smoking stench
Hood and robes engulfed in flame
Crucifixion, immolation
Behold the south will blaze again
Ch) Burn, burn, burn - immolation of the Aryan nation
What goes around comes around! The world is unfortunately still full of fuckwit Nazis who seriously believe you can cure societies problems by scapegoating other people. Sickeningly some still do this in the name of their twisted religion. The bible (AKA God's comic) says "Do unto others what you would have them do to you" what better way to start the payback! We wouldn't cross the road to piss on a racist on fire. But we might nip to the garage for some petrol and try putting them out with that instead. Whoof!
v) Systematic torture of the innocent
and helpless
The ultimate arrogance of a civilized (?) species
Ch) The death of animals for food
The death of animals for sport
The death of animals for greed
This demeans us
v) Minds desensitized by corpses
all around us
Its time we evolved beyond this slaughter
We are so used to animals being abused
for our everyday lives that most of us don't even notice. For example, we happily
let children see mutilated, dead carcasses of animals packaged and sanitized
in our supermarkets but shield them from the reality of death and torture carried
out in our name. Surely we have moved far enough along our social evolution
to do without the pain and death surrounding us! Open your eyes and break your
shit conditioning, we can all live richer healthier lives without the millstone
of abuse!
" The question is not can they speak, nor can they reason, but can they
suffer" - Jeremy Bentham
v) Countless generations of pain
and despair
Millions slaughtered to lead us nowhere
Numbers so high they defy comprehension
It seems that malice is our one true intention
Ch) One mans statistic is another
mans death
Violent sadistics from our waking breath
v) For every single unit on the tally
of dead
There's a family member, a life to be led
Numbers are people not ticks on a chart
Homicidal frenzy will tear us apart
Br) A legacy of murder - homicidal
sapiens
Thousands of millions - homicidal sapiens
In the name of a cause - homicidal sapiens
A legacy of murder - homicidal sapiens
Destruction is mans default setting.
The system, which fucks our lives from the day we are born, has brought us so
far along this dark twisted path we cannot see a way out. Death and war surround
us to the extent that our coping strategy is to stop seeing the casualties as
people and begin to see statistics. We all know from school that world war two
killed around 55 million for example, but stop and think about it, that's nearly
the entire population of Britain. For every 10 of your mates 8 would have been
slaughtered in agony! This only happened 60 years ago and here we are at war
again. Start to fucking empathize (with all sides involved), see the faces,
feel the sorrow of state sanctioned murder. Wars don't happen if there's no
one to fight them!
"The death of one person is tragedy but the death of a million is only
a statistic" - Josef Stalin
Here lies the boy who told the truth
Ignored in life for telling people how things are
Nobody knew how much frustration filled his life
And only realised when things had come too far
When people are afraid
They'd rather hear lies
It's all good fun 'til someone dies
Here comes the boy who always told
lies
Lays down his wreath and says I liked that guy
Everyone thought he talked a lot of sense
But soon his grave is overgrown and nobody cares
There is nothing worse than people lie through their teeth or act like sycophants. Taking responsibility for your actions includes taking responsibility for your words. A good friend is the one who will tell you when you are being an arsehole or indeed the one who can take such criticism.
Or it could be about the fact that those who tell the truth are silenced to cover up for the lies being told by "our leaders" (not mine!) to justify their actions. You've got a brain. make up your own mind!
If we let it happen it may be too late
Don't want a barcode, NO I.D!
Monitoring, stamping and classifying me
Tracking our movements, views and beliefs
Selling individuality to the I.D. thieves
Orwellian nightmare now coming true
Every time you use the card Big Brother watching you
No prison tattoo no yellow star
Subversives monitored by I.D.cards
Need to stop the system before judgement day
Where is John Connor when you need him now?
I.D. cards do not stop terrorists (at least 83% of terrorists arrested in this country had valid ID), they do not stop "benefit cheats" (not that we are giving credence to such a Daily-Mail-esque label), they do not make us safe, they are a tool of government to observe and control the people. In the Terminator film series , the fictional John Connor leads a rebellion to defeat the machines that have enslaved humanity. In reality we vote in what might as well be machines - that show no emotion and declare war in the name of money. Ifd we do not act now, we could soon carry Big Brother in our pocket or face jail. Join the resistance! No I.D!
Conceived a bastard
born like an animal
lived like a terrorist
died like a criminal
and worshiped by hypocrites
Christians should consider who they worship before they condemn. Tell us it ain't so!
Who are you to tell us what is anti-social when:
You produce chemical weapons
You poison the earth
Torture innocent animals
Subsidise murder
Give tax breaks to the rich
Whilst stealing from the poor
Monitor our movements
Close down freedom of speech
Host human rights abusers
Sell weapons of torture
And more...
And more....
So here's an anti-social behaviour
order
Listen to us we're giving you an order
Government, coppers, bosses and lackies
Listen to this order.........Fuck off!
If you believe the right wing press and politicians they would have you believe that Anti-Social Behaviour Orders are the answer to all the problems in society. Strangely though, they only seem to be dished out to people from working class areas who are acting "anti-social" as a reaction against the way they have been treated for decades. Sitting in moral judgement upon as are government officials and the like. Whilst throwing litter isn't exactly desirable, it pales into insignificance compared to the pollution and crap spewed about by industry and the military. The latest goverment pronouncement on how to deal with nuclear waste is not to stop producing it but to bury it. This sort of littering will last for thousands of generations but the people carrying it out won't be getting an ASBO.. They will get a big fat cheque from the government. An animal rights activist was sentenced to 4 months in jail for breaching an ASBO by protesting against the torture of animals for profit. Which is the real anti-social behaviour? Free speech or torturing animals to make money.....We could go on. You get the gist.
blind to the world - blind to our
fate
blind as the eyes that saw the flash
blind to the world - blind to our fate
looking away as our nations crash
dead to the world - dead to our fate
dead as the burning twisted limbs
dead to the world - dead to our fate
minds that devise a war no-one wins
when the black rain falls
our own pride will be our demon
killed by weapons we create
streaked and scorched by poison rainfall
children slaughtered in the streets
ashes and dust falling on blistered skin
burying corpses in drifts - the decline of humanity begins
Should you be lucky (?) enough to survive a nuclear, biological or chemical weapons attack, there is a second wave of attack as the radiation or poision is gathered into the atmosphere polluting what should be life-giving water. When the black rain falls, the legacy of the first attack revisits the victims again....and again.
dusted with death - 1000 miles from
here
a pocket full of tritinite - but still no need to fear
05:29:45 16/07/45
45000 feet - and drifting like a wraith
atomic calves and acid baths - sent to an early grave
planting your blood soaked flag
firmly between the shoulder blades
30000 murders
a ticker tape corpse parade
a crumbling empire shored up with
the bones of the innocent
bringing democracy when they cant even claim their voters consent
in your tank you crush the bodies
of the orphans you have made
the dead and dying form now
a ticker tape corpse parade
The latest Iraq conflict is just another chapter in the ongoing imperial tradition of the oil hungry USA and UK. The first British soldiers buried in Basra died there in 1915.
eaten away by maggots of self doubt
boredom turned rotten too deep to cut out
don't just do something: sit there
endless consumerism for trinkets
and treasure
material wealth an empty pleasure
grasping and hoarding is no way to measure
a life well spent in pursuit of leisure
your life is vacuous coz your worthless
my life is vacuous coz im worthless
A tool for research, a source of
income?
A meal to eat or a thinking friend?
A focus for abuse or a sentient being
Face it, we are all animals in the end!
Torture of animals to end human suffering
Frankenstein labs that delay the real cure
Money making scam for large multinationals
Knowingly engaged in scientific fraud
An abuse to one is an abuse to all
Animals are my friends... and I don't eat my friends. (George Bernard Shaw)
In suffering, the animals are our equals. (Peter Singer)
coming soon
coming soon
Take the moment
Seize the day
Use your voice
Have a say
Shout! Shout!
Use your anger
Don't be slack
Use your fists
Fight dem back
Fight!
Missiles and tanks bought from the
yanks
Land mines and ships bought from the brits
Lethal provisions for terrorist visions
And underhand deals are greasing the wheels
Over the noise of the bomb blasts
and kills
You can hear sounds of the ringing of tills
Over the sound of sirens and screams
You can hear the planning of government schemes
Over the stench of death and disease
You can still smell the bullshit of the arms deal MPs
Build your own terrorist regime
If you don't fully trust in your
shield and hat and your station won't let you off sick
Better not look for the guys dressed in black keep your eye on the fucking brick
You are a part of
Imperialism
The unprepared
Culture absorbed
Start looking for scapegoats
End hanging from lamposts
Greed vs need
They profit you bleed
Capitalism Controls!
