Dark Forces Lyrics by Killing Joke

Killing Joke (2003)

2003

[Verse 1]
You'll need a bit of holy water
And a little bit of knowledge
Invocation
To your holy guardian angel
The great evil around

[Verse 2]
God gave man dominion
Over fowls of the air and the fish of the sea
Justification
Of desecration
Who wrote this madness?

[Chorus]
Get up, wake up
Someone's taking you for a ride
Get up, wake up
Dark forces

[Verse 3]
They're printing up money
That doesn't exist
Then watch the wealthy
As they cash their chips

[Verse 4]
Economy's failed, start a war machine
Devoid of moral cause
As we witness the end
Of international laws

[Chorus]
Get up, wake up
Someone's taking you for a ride
Get up, wake up
Dark forces

[Verse 5]
I'm an inside man
Of the serpent clan
33 degrees
I´ll do as I please

[Verse 6]
Power for power's sake
A personal treasure trove
And two weeks off
In bohemian grove
You wanna come?

[Verse 7]
All the banking houses
That buy and sell
(They'd sell their own mother)
Just eat shit and die
Like everyone else

[Chorus]
Get up, wake up
Someone's taking you for a ride
Get up, wake up
Dark forces

[Chorus]
Get up, wake up
Someone's taking you for a ride
Get up, wake up
Dark forces
