A religion of uniform Cradle the star Hail their salute of pressure Underfoot, under squalor An issue is burning behind the flags of surrender Ignorance a weapon
As children bleed in their virginity Repeat your suffering Watch this crime a political act Suspend animation Forgive and forget gracefully Sell these arms to enemies we trust
Chuck it on the fire With all these lies we covet Politics wave this hand Eat the applause Refuse what has been treatened The dance of the 7 veils Too many soldiers fight an unknown cause
Into the valley of death rode the 600 Into the valley of death rode 600 blindmen When it's written down change the meaning Too many hungry lions waiting for the kill
Call it a blot on a gentlemen's conduct Stride in magnificent style To catch up on a winning Aim for an end in this wildlife drudgery The dance of the 7 veils has come to an end And you're left naked
Politics a bag of tricks Politics and politics Politics and politics Politics a bag of tricks Politics, Politics,... Waiting for the kill
Outstretched hands Open hands Outstretched hands
I pray for more I'm hungry and you won't feed me I'm starving And you won't Feed me
