Give me back my broken night
My mirrored room, my secret life It’s lonely here There’s no one left to torture Give me absolute control Over every living soul And lie beside me, baby That’s an orderGive me crack and anal sex
Take the only tree that’s left And stuff it up the hole In your culture Give me back the Berlin wall Give me Stalin and St. Paul I’ve seen the future, brother It is murderThings are going to slide, slide in all directions
Won’t be nothing (won’t be nothing) Nothing you can measure anymore The blizzard, the blizzard of the world Has crossed the threshold And it’s overturnedThe order of the soul
When they said (they said) repent (repent), repent (repent)
I wonder what they meant When they said (they said) repent (repent), repent (repent) I wonder what they meant When they said (they said) repent (repent), repent (repent) I wonder what they meantYou don’t know me from the wind
You never will, you never did I’m the little Jew Who wrote the Bible I’ve seen the nations rise and fall I’ve heard their stories, heard them all But love’s the only engine of survival Your servant here, he has been told To say it clear, to say it cold It’s over, it ain’t going Any further (do, do, do) And now the wheels of heaven stop You feel the devil’s riding crop Get ready for the futureIt is murder (do, do, do)
Things are going to slide
Slide in all directions Won’t be nothing (won’t be) Nothing you can measure anymore The blizzard, the blizzard of the world Has crossed the threshold And it’s overturned The order of the soulWhen they said (they said) repent (repent), repent (repent)
I wonder what they meant When they said (they said) repent (repent), repent (repent) I wonder what they meant When they said (they said) repent (repent), repent (repent) I wonder what they meantThere’ll be the breaking of the ancient
Western code Your private life will suddenly explode (ooh, ooh) There’ll be phantoms There’ll be fires on the road And the white man dancingYou’ll see a woman
Hanging upside down (ooh, ooh) Her features covered by her fallen gown (ooh, ooh) And all the lousy little poets Coming round Tryin’ to sound like Charlie Manson Yeah, the white man dancin’Give me back the Berlin wall
Give me Stalin and St. Paul Give me Christ or give me Hiroshima (do, do, do) Destroy another fetus now We don’t like children anyhow I’ve seen the future, baby It is murder (do, do, do)Things are going to slide, slide in all directions
Won’t be nothing (won’t be) Nothing you can measure anymore The blizzard, the blizzard of the world Has crossed the threshold And it’s overturned The order of the soulWhen they said (they said) repent (repent), repent (repent)
I wonder what they meant When they said (they said) repent (repent), repent (repent) I wonder what they meant When they said (they said) repent (repent), repent (repent) I wonder what they meantWhen they said (they said) repent (repent), repent (repent
