Satan's in Your Neighbourhood
Satan's in your neighbourhood
The Chinese believed in the spectacle of death
As a way of showing
How precariously they were alive
The vanity was thinking life was anything else
In a real war there were no commentators
No friends, maybe no enemies
The sun had drawn nearer to the earth
As if to scorch the death from the fields
Hell is out of fashion, one for each individual
The gaps between the bars are the sutures in your skull
It's a one way ticket to your modern hell, Nagasaki and Buchenwald
Worlds of lethal horror more final than the grave
Nuclear bombs and diet coke ads
Overpaid sportsmen the modern fads
Trapped like rats in traffic jams
Oh the queues and late running trams
Ruled by advertising and pseudo-events
Pornography and science, its power's immense
But science and technology
Is the language that we speak
The Chinese believed in the spectacle of death
As a way of showing
How precariously they were alive
The vanity was thinking life was anything else
In a real war there were no commentators
No friends, maybe no enemies
The sun had drawn nearer to the earth
As if to scorch the death from the fields
Hell is out of fashion, one for each individual
The gaps between the bars are the sutures in your skull
It's a one way ticket to your modern hell, Nagasaki and Buchenwald
Worlds of lethal horror more final than the grave
Nuclear bombs and diet coke ads
Overpaid sportsmen the modern fads
Trapped like rats in traffic jams
Oh the queues and late running trams
Ruled by advertising and pseudo-events
Pornography and science, its power's immense
But science and technology
Is the language that we speak
