"Money Is Not Our God"

"Money Is Not Our God"



Nine tenths of the law than sic
Is possession
Life expressed in matter is a blasphemy
Success defined by aquisition stinks!
So busy trying to make a living I forgot about living
Yes I do
So busy trying to make a living I forget about life

The best things I found in life were my birthright
Green fields mean more to me than a brand new car
Will you swap your hi-fi for a clear blue sky?
Will you cash in all your shares for Gods clean air?
Is your answer yes, or no, to these painful truths?
Is your answer yes, or no, to these painful truths?

Do you grovel to your master?
Do you beg like a dog?
First things first, repeat to yourself
AHHH MONEY! Money is not our GOD!

Mine!
The best things in life are free
Mine!
I own the beach and the blazing sunset
Mine!
I own the waves and the fresh air
Mine!
I drink the milk of the stars in this beautiful moment
Say to yourself
ALL THESE THINGS ARE MINE!

Repeat after me!
Money's not our God

Do you grovel to your master?
Do you beg like a dog?
First things first, repeat to yourself
AHHH MONEY!

"Multitudes"

"Multitudes"



The multitude excites, the flags are flown
By fireside the programme starts
And I am running through this madness
And all the time I can't relate

We sit around in rooms we talk our fears
Asking why we should go on
God I try to make ends meet the best I can
Playing rhythms out of time

Far from the multitudes a few will always stand
They don't fit in they don't belong - move on, move on this way

Within disorder I assume my role
Laugh and cry as I accept
Eternal indolence through ages
'til restless souls begin to wake

Perfection within decades of dissatisfaction and disillusion

A means to no end, a means to no end

"My Love Of This Land"

"My Love Of This Land"



The sun is setting in on England's green and pleasant land
AT dusk I leave the town to tear the fences down
And I ignore the voice of education sighing and crying in my head

In the light of every dream, we're all coming home
Lazy days and summer haze, my love of this land

Memories of gentlemen and cricket fade away in the hot summer
But still they carry out traditions of the past without a meaning

In the light of every dream, we're all coming home
Lazy days and summer haze, my love of this land

New towns and concrete towerblocks, inhuman as they stand
And did those feel in ancient times, or was it just our imaginations?

In the light of every dream, we're all coming home
Lazy days and summer haze, my love of this land

"New Cold War"

"New Cold War"



Closing in on the Eastern border
It’s a unicentric one world order
With Sino-Russian capitulation
It’s an orchestrated end of nations

Food prices soaring
As the sanctions kicked in
And all the hawks cried more
Oil prices falling
And the propaganda talks war
Minerva has decreed a state of attrition, hostilities
New Cold War!
New Cold War!
New Cold War!

In the Arctic wastes under sheets of ice
Mineral resources corporate forces eye
Occupation ensures supply
Colour-coded revolutions sustain the lie

Food prices soaring
As the sanctions kicked in
And all the hawks cried more
Oil prices falling
And the propaganda talks war
Minerva has decreed a state of attrition, hostilities
New Cold War!
New Cold War!
New Cold War!

Breaking in a cold sweat just like the good old days
The drum beat of hostilities has started to play
A perverted thrill reminiscent of the big chill
Hair trigger giving everyone a shiver

Food prices soaring
As the sanctions kicked in
And all the hawks cried more
Oil prices falling
And the propaganda talks war
Minerva has decreed a state of attrition, hostilities
New Cold War!
New Cold War!
New Cold War!

"New Jerusalem"

"New Jerusalem"



Fragmented communities staring at their screens in silence
All-night surfing till the dawn
Everyone’s hooked on online porn
All the people indifferent to torture
The media gives the thumbs up to the Gaza slaughter
Shallow, no attention span
No empathy for the common man

In Iraq a quarter of a million dead
Howdya feel about being misled?
The number one surveillance state
Zero regulation and there’s no debate
More lies, manufactured enemies
Divided nations need a common foe
A hornet’s nest created by the West
A new world order is the only goal

Look what we’ve become
Brainwashed Britain
Look what we’ve become
New Jerusalem!
New Jerusalem!

Another twat in the Number 10 flat
Dancing to the tune of Goldman Sachs
Another knob got the top job
Selling out to corporations
Culture, adult entertainment, calibrated to dumb down
Big Brother said ‘Strictly Come Dancing’
And everyone was dancing round and round

In Iraq a quarter of a million dead
Howdya feel about being misled?
The number one surveillance state
Zero regulation and there’s no debate
More lies, manufactured enemies
Divided nations need a common foe
A hornet’s nest created by the West
A new world order is the only goal

Look what we’ve become
Brainwashed Britain
Look what we’ve become
New Jerusalem!
New Jerusalem!
New Jerusalem!

"Night Time"

"Night Time"




Night time - turning out the sun
Countdown - pulsing like a machine
Conflict - cars and people, steel on flesh
Night time - desperations sweat on breath

Bloodstains - night covering the crimes
Daytime - shows the face behind the mask
Showtime - law and order life and death
Funtime - a drunken time where all can lie

Come, come with me, we'll run into the night
Come, come and see, sweet madness of night

Night time - party troops and governments
Clubtime - lovers riches promises
No time - running hiding crying tears
It's night time - and time to run from all your fears

Night time

"North Of The Border"

"North Of The Border"



Scrape my nails across a brick

I'll describe my mornings in the early hours
My pulses are racing, my heart beats out loud
I am north of the border (and I'm cold and I sweat)
And I worry I worry what tomorrow will bring

Scrape my nails across a brick

I walk north of the border and step over the line
To a place of frustration (going out of my mind)
I've tried wearing bright colours to brighten my life
But the truth cuts through fashion, it cuts like a knife
Just look at our faces, yes they say more than words
We're so lost in our problems
We're so lost in our world
Yesterday - nothing
But today is o.k. - I've enough to survive on
Tomorrow's another day

Scrape my nails across a brick

"Obsession"

"Obsession"



London, New York, Paris, Tokyo
All is one with the multi-nationals
Total monopolies I can sink or swim
Adrenalin is rushing through every action

Whole nations crave for release from the suspense
And I explode in you, my beautiful obsession

I've been dreaming all your nightmares
Holocausts, invented fantasies
We build the tower, tower falls down
All my dreams come true

Sweet Jesus & Mohammed
Disputes between the boys

Whole nations crave for release from this suspense
And I explode in you, my beautiful obsession

"On All Hallow's Eve"

"On All Hallow's Eve"



At last the dark years of grieving come to an end.
Old haunts and habits invoking loved ones and friends.
The graveyards forgotten, the churches are empty now.
I recall the times past and how much I miss you all.

Wake up! Reborn! Join in and celebrate!
Make noise! Wake up the great dead with reverence.
On all hallow's eve.

Endless drumming; rituals to wake up the dead.
Bring gifts and spirits, good wine- just cheese and some bread.
Incense of cigars and spices, pleasures we shared.
Light up the graveyards to show how much we all care.

Wake up! Reborn! Join in and celebrate!
Make noise! Wake up the great dead with reverence.
On all hallow's eve.

"Outside The Gate"

"Outside The Gate"



In the morning as I come around, rub my eyes and look outside
Watching, absorbing the underworld - reflections of a monstrous soul within
Power stations and power games - this sickness called society
I have identified the forces behind these changes that I see

I put on my mask
I walk down the path
I go through the arch
Outside the gate

I have walked blkac lava fields of the northern hemisphere
I have travelled the Andes range, across Pacific isles
There is no escape in the waking world from that which is approaching us fast
Salvation is drawn from our childhoos dreams
In lands of beauty untainted by cynicism

I put on my mask
I walk down the path
I go through the arch
Outside the gate

He invokes entities vast and mindless!

We shall taste unimaginable joys a thousand times greater than these!
And when the stars assume their rightful place, man liberates a mindless race
Morals and laws shall be thrown aside - tap the millenial flame with pride
Gaze with wonder, embrace your fate

- A madman looks outside the gate!

I put on my mask
I walk down the path
I go through the arch
I close the gate
