The Fatima Mansions - Something Bad lyrics
Your rating:
I was raised to expect continuity. instead I get this.. The monster has red hair The monster has green eyes She laughs and bites her quarry's nose As she pulls herself astride Her double-jointed hips now do their tricks And you can hear his plaintive yells From the plane-crash craters in the scottish hill To the burning oil wells Chorus: Something bad is giving birth To a thing which won't melt to your touch Something bad is giving birth To something worse and it's going to hurt His reebok shoes let in the rain And he coughs into the dawn At he searches for space on the synagogue wall To draw swastikas on Job descriptions change on the firing range All generals are friends So it's down to the dole with the molotovs It's problem time again--chorus You built the metal birds who [shrink] the skies And bring [in weakness? ] from the other side of a world All these birds bringing death You find all of our goodthere's only death left Big black hawk swinging low Over the rat-run streets of the english ghetto Clean spirit of the islandhome at last Come oncome oncome on--crash! One man felt ashamed running guns and cocaine For his short-term gainso every one of us must pay In his new world orderyou can have some nerve gas with your air Thanks to the cia pussy in the president's chair! Something bad is giving birth Seein the sky it's belly bursts! Something bad is giving birth And calls for wounds to slake it's thirst Something bad is giving birth No more decayno more dirt Something bad is giving birth In therefore's name it stalks the earth Do you feel you can deal? can you fuck!
