Plague
Bombs touch ground in the middle of the east
Golden sand painted red
Innocence fades before our eyes
Because we've all become a little bit sick in the head
Who are we kidding, this planet's full of sin
Now it God's time to prick us with his voodoo pin
Malice is what drives the heart to beat
And today, blood will spill from the dancer's feet
We deserve a little kick in the ass
For transforming a beautiful world into worthless trash
We made the bed, now we must sleep in the sheets of our transgressions
We aren't fooling anybody with our angelic impressions
Beware, for the disease will arise
And we're the reason that the world dies
Racial tension padlocks us into an invisible prison
Get over yourself, we all bleed crimson
Black, white, brown, yellow
We fall because you couldn't rest your head upon a different colored pillow
Then, we're tearing down homes in the forest and never hesitate
I wouldn't be surprised if we all suffocate
Next, precious creatures drown in a British gush
The environment's almost down the drain, don't forget to flush
We've killed ourselves as we stand under the venomous rain
And the poison we brew will forever leave a blackened stain
Ladies and gentleman, welcome to our show and tell
Look at how intricately we all burn in Hell
