Skull Of Your Country
Come, in the night, come in the day Anytime, and play our game It's all right Special flight You'll fly home into our game See the light Shining bright Shining down upon our game In the night Come in the day Play our game, come away! Turn around! It's a black day dawning Turn around! There's a corpse in mourning Turn around! In your tin can graveyard Turn around! To your tin foil savior Turn around, bright eyes! Turn around, bright eyes! Turn around! There are napalm babies screaming Turn around! There are rivers steaming Turn around! SongtexteTo your forests rotting [alt: "'cause the sun is rotting"] Turn around! To your assassins plotting [alt: "can't you feel sweet Satan plotting"] Turn around, bright eyes! Turn around, bright eyes! Don't let the slaughter drag you down Who ever said that madness was a sin? It's too late for the rain to wash you down Who ever killed the ocean and the wind? Down on your knees, now. What do you see now? Down on your knees, now. What do you see now? How do you bury the skull of your country? How do you bury a nation of fears? Where do you put all your long years of dying? Give me a tombstone and a wreath of all your tears Bring in all the children, with their bodies up against the wall No time for crying and there's no time left to stall No time for love now and there's no peace left at all We're on the edge now, and there's always one more fall [alt: "We're on the edge now, and it won't be me that falls"] Turn around! For the blood on your highways Turn around! Fuck up with a new war each day, now Turn around! For your skies are hungry Turn around! For your earth is thirsty Turn around, bright eyes Turn around, bright eyes Turn around! Let a new world in, now Turn around! Let the final dance begin, now Turn around! Give us all your guns, now Turn around! Look at us! We're your outlaw sons, now Turn around, bright eyes Turn around, bright eyes Don't let the slaughter drag you down Who ever said that madness was a sin? It's too late for the rain to wash you down Who ever killed the ocean and the wind? Down on your knees, now. What do you see now? Down on your knees, now. What do you see now? How do you bury the skull of your country? How do you bury a nation of fears? Where do you put all the long years of dying? Give me a tombstone and a wreath of all your tears Come, in the night, come in the day Anytime, and play our game It's all right Special flight You'll fly home into our game See the light Shining bright Shining down upon our game In the night Come in the day Play our game, come away!
