21st Century Lullaby Lyrics by Snog

Babes in Consumerland

2013

We took our seats ahead of the show
Confections and treats all ready to go
It was a grand old sight - parted curtains of white
A mesmeric scene projected on the screen
A proud man driven in a black Cadillac
Cars at the front, cops at the back
He smiled with a wave of his generous hand
Thunder shook across the land
His head nodded forward then violently back
Crack and crack upon crack and crack
A crimson dream escaped from his skull
We all fell silent we all felt null
Curtains closed, the Usher spake
No need for alarm, you shan't come to harm
He sprinkled his sleeping dust across our eyes
A fitful lullaby was our prize
While we were sleeping it grew and grew
Tendrils creeping through and through
The black mass spreading here and there
Still we kept on sleeping without a care
T'was a bright fresh day in Appleton
Towers of grey stood in the sun
A bolt struck fast from Jerusalem
Buildings shook, crumbled like crumbs
A Rubicon of blood wormed its way
Throughout the night and throughout the day
The town crier howled it was the hordes
Heathen whores, Allah's Lords
T'was not polite to disbelieve
Though something shook up his sleeve
The magician waved, t'was a brilliant show
Now our eyes are heavy ... time to go
While we were sleeping it grew and grew
Tendrils creeping through and through
The black mass spreading here and there
Still we kept on sleeping without a care
