What’s Next
Is the unborn child
To be the next unknown soldier?
No voice no voice they got no voice
Yesterdays gone
A new world orders born
No choice no choice we got no choice
Suicide bombings
A warning to us all
No more no more we want no more
Peace and freedom man
Could be reality
No war no war we want no w

Silent Scream

Silent Scream
A silent scream from an animal’s throat
A knife pulled slowly as the slaughter man gloats
A live sacrificed for corporate greed
A live food source for which there is no need
From green open fields to the butchers slab
Terror in the slaughthouse, madness in the lab
Packed onto trucks then packed into bags
A guilt free meal if you don’t think to hard
So were a nation of animal lovers don’t make me laugh
As the police smash another demo outside a lab
Money talks or so they say you knows it’s just the way
So you better shut the fuck up not get in the way
Food poison scares, meats rotten no one cares
Animals locked up in a cage, blinded by science, silent rage
Such untold cruelty for a drug we can’t afford
Is the real price of beauty really worth the cost?
Blood soaked hands in meat and drugs
When will we decide enough is enough?
But there’s money in this and business votes
They call us terrorist and that’s no fucken joke
From green open fields to the butchers slab
Terror in the slaughterhouse, madness in the lab
Packed onto trucks then packed into bags
A guilt free meal if you don’t think to hard
And you don’t
So were a nation of animal lovers don’t make me laugh
As the police smash another demo outside a lab
Money talks or so they say you knows it’s just the way
So you better shut the fuck up not get in the way
Food poison scares, meats rotten no one cares
Animals locked up in a cage, blinded by science, silent rage
Such untold cruelty for a drug we can’t afford
Is the real price of beauty really worth the cost?

Silence

Silence
Push back push out
Break the silence break the violence
Make a stand become one voice
Do it now before all is lost
Crackdowns coming hard
Enforced on us with ID cards
Individuality is a crime
Life is doing time
Silenced is viewed as contempt
Silence is taken as consent
Silence is broken on bones
Silence locked up in our homes
Silence is missile warheads
Silence is millions dead
Silence is a stain on the Earth
Its been with since day of birth
Silence millions animals slaughtered
Silence animals tortured
Silence we lose our rights
In silence we give up the fight
Silence not really
Silence is smothering us
Our silence is smothering us
Breaking down the barriers and kicking open doors
Smashing through the silence with a noise all our own
But the lights are going out and darkness closing in
We’re giving up without a shout we let the system win
Silenced is viewed as contempt
Silence is taken as consent
Silence is broken on bones
Silence locked up in our homes
Silence is missile warheads
Silence is millions dead
Silence is a stain on the Earth
Its been with since day of birth
Silence millions animals slaughtered
Silence animals tortured
Silence we lose our rights
In silence we give up the fight
Silence not really
Silence is smothering us
Our silence is smothering us
Push back push out
Break the silence break the violence
Make a stand become one voice
Do it now before all is lost
Crackdowns coming hard
Enforced on us with ID cards
Individuality is a crime
Life is doing time

Suspicion

Suspicion
Security replaces liberty
Paranoia replaces peace
The SUS is back in suspicion
More powers to the police
Cameras on top of lamp posts
The systems eyes in the sky
The war on terror has come home
And no one questions why
When food not bombs give out free food
The cops chased them from the neighbourhood
Where freedom of speech is no longer true
And dissent is looked on as a treasonous act
They subvert the rule of law
crackdown on opposition
We must fight back, no more silence
Let them know our position
We’re smashing our heads against the wall
The system built but it will fall
Raise our voices raise our fists
Smash the lies and divisions that still persist
CHORUS
Stop, search and question, don’t need a reason why
The cop says your suspicious, don’t have to tell you why
Guilty until proven innocent and killing trial by jury
The war in terror is over the fucking terrorists won.
Incarceration with no representation
Locked up without trial
They wanna change the law, gonna hold you 90 days or more
Become one of the disappeared, become the nation we all feared
Welcome to the future, in a locked up, fucked up nation.

Statement
Tears fall from my eyes
I realise I’m alone
Not understanding why
We choose to ignore
All the pain and suffering
That happens in this world
We sit behind net curtains and hoping no one saw
Life goes on pain and suffering
Fear and hatred
Going nowhere
Suffer in silence no more
Suffer in silence no more
Tears fall from my eyes
I realise I’m no longer alone
Surrounded y my friends
Support me to the end
All the pain and suffering has now gone in the past
But we all must stick together if this scene is gonna last

Do the lyrics los ya?

Do the lyrics lose ya?
Do the lyrics lose ya?
Only the music moves ya?
Are the words really worthless?
Do our protests mean nothing?
Told we have freedom of speech just don’t you dare speak out
Civil liberties are under attack in the name of false security
Terrorist are the new boogie men there could be one in every street
So ID cards enforced on us all would make you bloody weep
New anti terror laws were thrown out on its ears
Traitors screamed the tabloids feeding off the public fear
Accused of being appeasers for speaking out about the war
While they stand around the cenotaph remembering those who fought for
Do the lyrics lose ya?
Only the music moves ya?
Are the words really worthless?
Do our protests mean nothing?
Democracy’s a farce
The rich shit on the poor
But no one gives a fuck cos big brother s on channel 4
It’s all done with sleight of hand
It’s smoke and mirrors mate
And before you fucken know it it’ll be too fucken late
Do the lyrics lose ya?
Only the music moves ya?
Are the words really worthless?
Do our protests mean nothing?
Marching down a city street protesting about the war
Surrounded on both sides by the stewards and the law
Try to break away, the police on your case
Using the excuse that they keep the public safe
Truncheon smashing skull CS gas in your face
Riot police riot dogs you have to up the pace
Running for your life keeping one step ahead
Seen that look in the coppers face he wants to see you dead so
Do the lyrics lose ya?
Only the music moves ya?
Are the words really worthless?
Do our protests mean nothing?
Democracy’s a farce
The rich shit on the poor
But no one gives a fuck cos big brother s on channel 4
It’s all done with sleight of hand
It’s smoke and mirrors mate
And before you fucken know it it’ll be too fucken late

Whats it all about?

What’s it all about?
You stupid fucken bastards are too blind to see
What this so called system has done to you and me
The politics for war we’ll never understand
Weapons of mass destruction nobody ever found
World domination poverty starvation
Well one by one they came
It’ll all end in death but some things never change
They have the power to destroy, wipe out or take control
Whole populations for world annihilation
Organised terrorism government barbarism
All the fucken same
Millions win die the world passes by
Whose to fucken Blame
Dont you admit it you got it all wrong
Wont you tell us the truth don’t you string us along
Your total lack of the truth is no big surprise
And your total dishonesty it wont be the first time
World domination poverty starvation
Well one by one they came
It’ll all end in death but some things never change
They have the power to destroy, wipe out or take control
Whole populations for world annihilation
Organised terrorism government barbarism
All the fucken same
Millions win die the world passes by
Whose to fucken Blame

Time and time again
02:40

|
Time and time again
Time and time again they give their speeches of power
War hate and greed is all that they live for
Don’t need their politics we’ve heard them all before
They cover their tracks when questions are raised
They don’t care if you’re dead or alive
Its profits not people that help them to survive
Poverty stricken countries the deficit remains
Who makes decisions and who makes the gains?
Do they think can fool us with statistics and facts
Designed to confuse us when subtlety lacks
Make the rich richer you steal from the poor
Ensure your survival by changing the laws

Sleep
Grey flickering eye in the corner of the room
Showing things for you to consume
Signals coming out for you to go to sleep
With your eyes wide open but your brains in deep
Go to sleep go sleep
You cant break free of the single eye
Its got you so entranced kiss your life goodbye
Watching other drones live their boring boring life
While you give up on your own boring life x2
Go to sleep go to sleep
Grey eye in the corner flickers, demanding your attention
The crap it shows you blinds you to the truth with objects of pretension
This is what you life could be like, the flickering light caresses
But your brains asleep, you’re in too deep, there is no happy ending
Got to sleep go to sleep
Images casting light that’s reflected in your eyes
Its greed and need and “I want that” with no thoughts of the consequences
That gre light seeping into your brain with the message to go to sleep
But keep consuming, keep presuming that everything’s ok
Go to sleep got to sleep

APATHY
An unseen enemy, that slowly consumes
The will to do, once outside the womb
A hidden canker, impressed on you
Why not just give up, nothing you can do
Break
Growth is stunted imagination reigned in
Pigeon-holed, so you cant win
You will conform do as your told
Act your age now that you are old
Chorus
Apathy
Apathy
Apathy
Apathy
Taught to walk and talk, then told sit down shut up
Curiosity they say, killed the cat maybe you someday
Told that this is you, this is all you’ll ever be
Futures planned for you, straight jacket society
Break
Say that you cant live, outside the social norm
Become disillusioned, cant live my live their way

Politicians and bankers
So sick and fucken tired of listening to their lies
Of promises they cannot keep to keep their votes alive
Of calling this a credit crunch as we plunge into recession
Of rich fat cats making a killing then asking for concessions
Of high street banks who profits numbered in billions
Suddenly on the brink and drag the world in with them
To keep the company’s profits up the move the jobs offshore
And now the middle classes are suddenly fuel poor
Of companies that once belonged to the nation
Government sold them back to us now share shock sensation
And CEO’s who fucked up bad go with a million golden smiles
Huge pensions for life while have to strive just to survive
So sick and fucken tired of listening to their lies
Of promises they cannot keep to keep their votes alive
Of calling this a credit crunch as we plunge into recession
Of rich fat cats making a killing then asking for concessions
150% mortgages with no chance of paying back
House prices through the roof now the system starts to crack
You built your house of cards up on some shifting sands
With toxic debt you’re up to your neck and sinking out of sight
Rich Tory peers confirm all out fears that they are out of touch
With “So called recession” “Never had it so good” and “an excuse for poor to breed”
We take the brunt of austerity cuts with job losses and benefits cuts
They live off our work it’s them that are shirks its time to put a stop
So sick and fucken tired of listening to their lies
Of promises they cannot keep to keep their votes alive
Of calling this a credit crunch as we plunge into recession
Of rich fat cats making a killing then asking for concessions
