[al:The Future]
[by:(5nd音乐网)]
[00:10]Give me back my broken night
[00:13]my mirrored room, my secret life
[00:16]its lonely here,
[00:18]theres no one left to torture
[00:23]Give me absolute control
[00:27]over every living soul
[00:30]And lie beside me, baby,
[00:33]thats an order!
[00:35]
[00:37]Give me crack and anal sex
[00:40]Take the only tree thats left
[00:43]and stuff it up the hole
[00:46]in your culture
[00:50]Give me back the Berlin wall
[00:55]give me Stalin and St Paul
[00:57]Ive seen the future, brother:
[01:00]it is murder.
[01:02]
[01:04]Things are going to slide, slide in all directions
[01:10]Wont be nothing
[01:12]Nothing you can measure anymore
[01:17]The blizzard, the blizzard of the world
[01:22]has crossed the threshold
[01:25]and it has overturned
[01:27]the order of the soul
[01:31]When they said REPENT REPENT
[01:37]I wonder what they meant
[01:40]When they said REPENT REPENT
[01:47]I wonder what they meant
[01:50]When they said REPENT REPENT
[01:57]I wonder what they meant
[02:00]
[02:05]You dont know me from the wind
[02:08]you never will, you never did
[02:11]Im the little jew
[02:14]who wrote the Bible
[02:18]Ive seen the nations rise and fall
[02:21]Ive heard their stories, heard them all
[02:24]but loves the only engine of survival
[02:32]Your servant here, he has been told
[02:36]to say it clear, to say it cold:
[02:39]Its over, it aint going
[02:41]any further
[02:45]And now the wheels of heaven stop
[02:48]you feel the devils riding crop
[02:52]Get ready for the future:
[02:55]it is murder
[02:57]
[02:59]Things are going to slide, slide in all directions
[03:05]Wont be nothing
[03:08]Nothing you can measure anymore
[03:12]The blizzard, the blizzard of the world
[03:17]has crossed the threshold
[03:19]and it has overturned
[03:21]the order of the soul
[03:24]
[03:26]When they said REPENT REPENT
[03:32]I wonder what they meant
[03:36]When they said REPENT REPENT
[03:42]I wonder what they meant
[03:47]When they said REPENT REPENT
[03:53]I wonder what they meant
[03:56]
[03:59]Therell be the breaking of the ancient
[04:02]western code
[04:07]Your private life will suddenly explode
[04:13]Therell be phantoms
[04:15]Therell be fires on the road
[04:18]and the white man dancing
[04:25]Youll see a woman
[04:28]hanging upside down
[04:34]her features covered by her fallen gown
[04:39]and all the lousy little poets
[04:43]coming round
[04:45]tryin to sound like Charlie Manson
[04:53]and the white man dancin
[04:55]
[05:02]Give me back the Berlin wall
[05:05]Give me Stalin and St Paul
[05:08]Give me Christ
[05:09]or give me Hiroshima
[05:15]Destroy another fetus now
[05:18]We dont like children anyhow
[05:25]it is murder
[05:27]
[05:29]Things are going to slide, slide in all directions
[05:34]Wont be nothing
[05:37]Nothing you can measure anymore
[05:41]The blizzard, the blizzard of the world
[05:46]has crossed the threshold
[05:49]and it has overturned
[05:51]the order of the soul
[05:55]When they said REPENT REPENT
[06:02]I wonder what they meant
[06:06]When they said REPENT REPENT
[06:12]I wonder what they meant
[06:15]When they said REPENT REPENT
[06:21]I wonder what they meant
[06:24]
[06:26]When they said REPENT REPENT
