#3
Well he talks in confusion
And he faults your point of view
You talk about his operation
And he talks, hear him laughing at you

#4
Contamination and radiation
Let it crawl, wanna see you stalemate
Can't turn to blink or think for a while
Now you're melting through your burning feet
                   #5(x2)
All the people say "Ohh..."

Stop!

#3
He talks, clearly starts to open
A thousand fingers reach out for you

#4
We don't feel no contamination (x4)

#5(x4)
Ohhh...


#6(x4)  #1(x4)  #7(x2)


#3
Oh, keep talking, you're a hunter, I'm a wolf
Yeah, keep talking, I'm the preacher, you're the fool!

#4
Contamination and radiation
Let it crawl, wanna see you stalemate
Can't turn to blame or think for a while
Now you're melting through your burning feet
                          #5(x4)
Thought I'd hear you say "Ohh..."

We don't feel no contamination (x4)

Radiation.



As usual, it's quite hard to distinguish which one is guitar one, two or the
bass. The above sounds pretty good when playing along to the record, though.

When no number of times a riff should be played, is stated, simply repeat
it until you bump into another one, and start playing that.

Riff #3 actually should be: D:--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2... played with
the string "half-muted", but that's not very exciting, is it?

I took the liberty of changing John's (McDonagh) lyrics transcription in a few
places, thereby not claiming my interpretation is correct.

Finally, anybody recognise riff #8 from somewhere else? :-)
