Have you seen what's going on
in Afghanistan
and all that's gone wrong
caused by the Taliban
driving the country
into rack and ruin
with impunity
is what they're doing
it's what they've done
it would be good
to put them on the run
better yet eliminate
those Barbarians at the gate
yes it would be best
to dress each one
in a suicide vest
then blow their tiny minds
up the Khyber to Kingdom Come

Why do you not see the world's in a civil war
I'll bet you'll notice when the army kicks in your door.
We fear anyone who doesn't look or think the same
Thinking you're better, you're playing the Banksters game.
These greedy creatures own you and your home
It's been this way since the days of Rome.
Only in conflict they will ever invest
After the Arabs, who's next to be oppressed.
Anyone who's different we need to defeat
Who really hates these people, you or the elite.
They love their power, they love the status quo
Who's next to fall, only they know.
The only way to survive is to lose your individuality
We're free ranch chickens, stuck in a fake reality.
Do what you're told or go straight to jail
The systems been rigged for any change to fail.
Lies and indoctrination is all you'll find in a school
Qualifications don't make you smart, you're just another tool.
We are the slaves under the money whip
We beg for water while champagne they'll sip.
They're comfortable in the knowledge, the masses are dumb enough
Working for them is what makes life tuff.
You'll stay in their system that you'll avoid trying to see
I suppose it's easier than asking "is this me"

Barbarians trampled through the empire.
They came in waves from wherever was home.
Boors killed Romans and set buildings afire.
Cities were laid to waste when tribes would roam.
These ruffians lit Rome’s funeral pyre.

A lovely face with a gorgeous height,
Nibbles the straw with its bemused delight,
Chafed palpitation in bewilderment,
Ticks disaster reeking of harassment;
Look away and miss those voluptuous joints,
Fine lingerie upsets the veiled data points,
Tattoo figures in barbarian flanks,
Badgered innocence and I muse for ranks.
In her feline moves watch for the gait;
Never burn fingers when you see her bait.

Take a look at the picture books,
watch the news.
Read about it in the papers
the are fighting out of the blues.
Children are dying,
mothers are weeping
fathers are fighting
till this day i know not why.
Barbarians at the gate
pull up the draw bridge too much war.
Children are suffering
what happened to farming, making fine wine and chanting?
building fine structures and singing sweet tunes.
We say we are civilized
by making weapons of mass destruction,
we say we are civilized by sending children to war.
Barbarians at the gate
pull up the draw bridge and flood the carnal
we cant let them in
they are causing problems for the children.
Barbarians at the gate
open up your bible and say a prayer
cause we are of he who is greater than he who is in the world.
Barbarians at the gate
we have to give thanks and praises to the king of kings.
He is the conquering lion of the tribe of Judah
