Bloodsport
'Roll up, roll up', the promoter chants
'Stand up, stand up for the champion'
And like bulls they lock horns as I watch from the stands
All clad in red, bloodsport mayhem
And I was shocked to find the inner impulse
Entertainment with perversity
While placing bets on these lesser creatures
As they wound and maim
Tonight's main feature
So I sit and observe and watch the scene unwind
Oh what a way just to pass my time
It's an exhibition and I feel fine
I just came here to watch this sight
It's all neon-lighted fantasy
A cruel pastiche of an Orwellian scene
We're brothers here in fraternity
United, baying for savagery
And for those who would like to beg to differ
Look to the fighters in the ring who suffer
As we punch the air, we yell and we heckle
Like the flick of a coin
Fate is so fickle
So I sit and observe and watch the scene unwind
Oh what a way just to pass my time
It's an exhibition and I feel fine
I just came here to watch this sight
And I caught his eyes as he went for the kill
His eyes inflamed and his victim still
'Show no mercy' - the crowd is ablaze
In our voyeuristic, sadistic craze
'Stand up, stand up for the champion'
And like bulls they lock horns as I watch from the stands
All clad in red, bloodsport mayhem
And I was shocked to find the inner impulse
Entertainment with perversity
While placing bets on these lesser creatures
As they wound and maim
Tonight's main feature
So I sit and observe and watch the scene unwind
Oh what a way just to pass my time
It's an exhibition and I feel fine
I just came here to watch this sight
It's all neon-lighted fantasy
A cruel pastiche of an Orwellian scene
We're brothers here in fraternity
United, baying for savagery
And for those who would like to beg to differ
Look to the fighters in the ring who suffer
As we punch the air, we yell and we heckle
Like the flick of a coin
Fate is so fickle
So I sit and observe and watch the scene unwind
Oh what a way just to pass my time
It's an exhibition and I feel fine
I just came here to watch this sight
And I caught his eyes as he went for the kill
His eyes inflamed and his victim still
'Show no mercy' - the crowd is ablaze
In our voyeuristic, sadistic craze
