[we're recording, shut up] Strontium-90 Removed from milk Is as curious an entity As bullshit writ on silk Cancer's airborne now Do you hear the sound? I was hanging out the washing, man As the rain came falling down Now the grass lies snakes Has crowds of iodine and fire On Jezebel's luminescence I swear you are my heart's desire Bombproof the embassy Give infanticide a cemetery You looked so good on the late night news With your curtain and your deed Yeah, I love you like a violin I'll hunt you like an amputee But I ain't gonna lose my skin I would love to see you again Again... I... I would love to see you again I... I would love to see you again You wrote me a letter And this is how it went: It said, "We're just backing up the supply lines The first division's crossin' the Nile Through the rushes and up the side And into the machine gun fire" Yeah, you tell me that this is not a dream I've become a steel spring Uranium tips, night vision cruise missiles Gonna cut the belly out of the sky I rode an Abrams And we stopped in Bethlehem They made the answers here But there weren't so many questions then And there I shot a woman In a headscarf with my gun She said, "Does my bomb look big in this? Am I the only one?" I was in the Blitz, you know When my heart was young and true I had a Caesarean, but it was not any use Oh, calamity! Oh, the vanity! You can't ride a thunderbolt You can't claim an enemy There ain't nothing here Except a darkness, Lord I ain't gonna fail no test I gave my dowry to a finger on a switch Turn me to a fine pink mist But I ain't nothing but your stranger still If I'm even anyone at all But I ain't gonna lose my skin I would love to see you again Again... I... I would love to see you again I... I would love to see you again But that ain't gonna happen now It's no use to pretend No How many people gonna lie? How many people gonna die? What's best for the West and the greed? Kill 'em all? Let 'em breed? Another bomb for every atom you injure Meet the Devil with extended ring finger Saying "thou shalt not kill" But I'm damned if I don't So I'm thinking I will Yeah, Dan Pearl They cut your head off on TV But I am not a camera A man is not an effigy But still all this horror Has made a trench out of my soul I'm gonna have to fall in love with a blind girl So she will not see the shame that I know Oh, new scar You have raised the bar Goliath rides an oil drum raft Through a cyclone in my ear drums You don't want a tyrant, we're sure You'd prefer civil war And I am gonna lose my skin And I ain't gonna see you again Again... I... I would love to see you again I... I would love to see you again
