Fatima Mansions - Something Bad Lyrics
I was raised to expect continuity. instead I get this..The monster has red hairThe monster has green eyesShe laughs and bites her quarrys noseAs she pulls herself astrideHer double-jointed hips now do their tricksAnd you can hear his plaintive yellsFrom the plane-crash craters in the scottish hillTo the burning oil wellsChorus:Something bad is giving birthTo a thing which wont melt to your touchSomething bad is giving birthTo something worse and its going to hurtHis reebok shoes let in the rainAnd he coughs into the dawnAt he searches for space on the synagogue wallTo draw swastikas onJob descriptions change on the firing rangeAll generals are friendsSo its down to the dole with the molotovsIts problem time again--chorusYou built the metal birds who [shrink] the skiesAnd bring [in weakness? ] from the other side of a worldAll these birds bringing deathYou find all of our good, theres only death leftBig black hawk swinging lowOver the rat-run streets of the english ghettoClean spirit of the island, home at lastCome on, come on, come on--crash!One man felt ashamed running guns and cocaineFor his short-term gain, so every one of us must payIn his new world order, you can have some nerve gas with your airThanks to the cia ***** in the presidents chair!Something bad is giving birthSee, in the sky its belly bursts!Something bad is giving birthAnd calls for wounds to slake its thirstSomething bad is giving birthNo more decay, no more dirtSomething bad is giving birthIn therefores name it stalks the earthDo you feel you can deal? can you *****!
