Apocalypse redux Interacting with our tear ducts. We fly our flags Until they are draped on our coffins While weapons are tested by boffins Sold to our enemies Who fire them at us While pop stars can only sing Insipid love songs What happened to protesting? That's right we have give notice to the powers that be The government which seems to control the BBC So protests don't get reported We are more interested in who gets deported Than helping mankind We bombed their countries to the brink of annihilation Is there no room in our nihilism? That is in our souls We are more short sighted than moles Love is only favouritism when we don't extend it to all of the human race Compassion has died God cradles their face.
