Death of the West Lyrics by Death in June

Lesson 1: Misanthropy

1984

[Chorus]
They're making the last film
They say it's the best
And we all helped make it
It's called «The Death of the West»
[Verse 1]
The kids from «Fame» will all be there
Free Coca-Cola for you!
And all the monkeys from the zoo
Will they be extras too?
[Chorus]
They're making the last film
They say it's the best
And we all helped make it
It's called «The Death of the West»
[Verse 2]
A star is rising in our northern sky
And on it we're crucified
A chain of gold is wrapped around this world
We're ruled by those who lie
We're ruled by those who lie
We're ruled by those who lie
[Chorus]
They're making the last film
They say it's the best
And we all helped make it
It's called «The Death of the West»
They're making the last film
They say it's the best
And we all helped make it
It's called «The Death of the West»
[Outro]
It's called «The Death of the West»
It's called «The Death of the West»
