A SPECTRE IS RISING IN THE WORLD TODAY
|
BORN OF DISASTER, FED ON DISMAY
|
FROM THE SHACKLES OF SLAVERY, TOIL AND PAIN
|
THE PEOPLE ARE RISING TO STAKE THEIR CLAIM
|
|
A TASTE OF THIS WHIP IS ALL THAT YOU'LL NEED
|
TO KEEP YOU IN LINE, KEEP YOU DOWN ON YOUR KNEES
|
WE ARE THE BASTARDS OF MAMMON, WE'RE HERE TO STAY
|
KEEP YOU BOWING AND SCRAPING 'TIL YOUR DYING DAY
|
|
A SPECTRE IS RISING FROM SEA TO SEA
|
A GLOBAL SOLUTION FOR A GLOBAL DISEASE
|
A SPECTRE IS RISING FROM SEA TO SEA
|
DIVIDED YOU¡¯RE CONQUERED ? UNITED WE¡¯RE FREE
|
|
MILES ABOVE YOU AND WORLDS APART
|
THE BASTARDS OF MAMMON ARE PLAYING THEIR PART
|
TO FATTEN THEIR BELLIES AND HOLLOW OUR HEARTS
|
DYSTOPIAN NIGHTMARE - WAR IS ART
|
|
THE FACE OF THE MASTER IS THE FACE OF THE WHORE
|
HUNGRY FOR MONEY, ALWAYS READY FOR MORE.
|
HEAR HIM SCRATCHING JUST OUTSIDE OF YOUR DOOR
|
TO FEED ON YOUR CHILDREN AND CONQUER YOUR SHORES
|
|
ONE IF BY LAND, TWO IF BY SEA
|
THREE WHEN WE FIND YOU, DOWN ON YOUR KNEES
|
BLINDED BY PROPHETS SICK WITH DISEASE
|
WITH HOLY IRREVERENCE, WE DO AS WE PLEASE
|
|
|
¡°WHAT TERRIFIED ME WILL TERRIFY OTHERS.
|
I NEED ONLY DESCRIBE THE SPECTRE WHICH HAD HAUNTED MY MIDNIGHT PILLOW¡±
