2nd Dark Age Lyrics by ​The Fall

Dragnet

0

[Verse 1]
Fat conference women
Clap return of glass house
And the Arabs have it made
Oil is women in veils, eyes glazed
It's a second dark age (Second dark age, second dark age)
Death of the USA (Second dark age, second dark age)
Return of the family (Second dark age, second dark age)
And pursuit of cabbages (Second dark age, second dark age)

[Verse 2]
And the commune crap heads
Sit and whine
While the common near my birthplace
Is now a police college
It's a second dark age (Second dark age, second dark age)
No sun Sunday, or any day (Second dark age, second dark age)
The city is dead, bust (Second dark age, second dark age)
Ghost dance rite, tepid (Second dark age, second dark age)

[Verse 3]
I could join a pray-peace group
Spy in Norway
'Cause groups can change the world
And meet Ms. Fjord and Benny
Ms. Fjord and Benny, "Hi, I am Benny" (Check me through, check me through)
Go where the brave prance (Check me through, check me through)
No Czechoslovak food queues (Check me through, check me through)
Are a party, fool (Check me through, check me through)

[Verse 4]
A mediocre anti-Jew
And single people are screwed
In a second dark age
In a second dark age (Second dark age, second dark age)
I am Roman Totale XVII (Second dark age, second dark age)
The bastard offspring of Charles I (Second dark age, second dark age)
And the Great God Pan (Second dark age, second dark age)
