Saw the news in the afternoon 

Another war will be coming soon 

Man ripped up like a piece of paper 

With his wife looking on and no-one to help her 


Hammill says we're still in the dark ages 

With people's greed and hating rages 

The world don't learn so the world will burn 

The world will burn 'cause the world don't learn 

The world don't learn so the world will burn 

The world will burn 'cause the world won't learn 


Looks like I'm gonna build my shelter again 

Such a messed up world we're living in today 

Thank God for the rain 

Maybe it'll wash that scum away 


Streets ain't safe in this town no more 

Girl get hassle at her front door 

Violence rising out of hand 

We can't bring the kids up in this land 


Getting mugged on your way home 

By youths with masks and knives they own 

How long will it be 'til they got a gun? 

Shoot you down just like a dog for fun 


Looks like I'm gonna build my shelter again 

Such a messed up world we're living in today 

Thank God for the rain 

Maybe it'll wash that scum away 


Thought my sensitivity would be smashed 

By some inner city wisdom trash 

Instead my own phobia-centricity 

Is growing out of every bit of me 


I like my home, I don't want to move 

But maybe I'll be forced to soon 

To lock the doors and board up the windows 

Lock the doors and board up the windows (x3) 


Looks like I'm gonna build my shelter again 

Such a messed up world we're living in today 

Thank God for the rain 

Maybe it'll wash that scum away 


People die and nature replaces 

You see the lives in all of the faces 

Of so-called lunatics and basket cases 

Who'd hang themselves with their shoe laces 


They have no place in the rat races 

As a society which just misplaces 

Puts more importance on money not faces 

And have its sleeves filled with all the aces 


Looks like I'm gonna build my shelter again 

Such a messed up world we're living in today 

Thank God for the rain 

Maybe it'll wash that scum away
