Give me back my broken night, my m  irrored room, my secret life
it's l  onely here, there's no on  e left to tor  ture
Give me absolute control o  ver every living soul
And l  ie beside me baby, that's an or  der !
Give me crack an anal sex, t  ake the only tree that's left
and s  tuff it up the ho  le in your cultur  e
Give me back the Berlin Wall, g  ive me Stalin and St. Paul
I've s  een the future, br  other : it is mu  rder.
Th  ings are gonna slide (sli  de) in all directions
Won't be nothi  ng (won't be) nothing you can't measur  e anymore.
The bliz  zard, the blizzard  of the world   has crossed the threshold
and it has over  turned the order of the soul   
When they said   (they said) REPENT (repent) REPENT (repent)
I wonder wh  at they meant
When they sa  id (they said) REPENT (repent) REPENT (repent)
I wonder wh  at they meant
When they sa  id (they said) REPENT (repent) REPENT (repent)
I wonder wh  at they meant
You don't know me from the wind, you never will, you never did
I'm the little jew who wrote the bible
I've seen nations rise and fall, I've heard their stories, heard them all
but love's the only engibe of survival
Your servant here he has been told to say it clear to say it cold :
It's over, it ain't going any further
And now the wheels of heaven stop, you feel the devil's riding crop
Get ready for the future : it is murder.
Refrain
There'll be the breaking of the ancient western code
Your p  rivate life will suddenly explode
There'll be p  hantoms, there'll be fires on the road
and the white man d  ancing       
You'll see your w  oman hanging upside down
her fe  atures covered by her fallen gown
and all the l  ousy little poets coming around
trying to sound like Charlie M  anson       
and the white man d  ancing
Give me back the Berlin Wall, g  ive me Stalin and St. Paul
  Give me Christ or g  ive me Hirosh  ima
Destroy another fetus now, we d  on't like children anyhow
I've s  een the future, ba  by : it is mu  rder.
Refrain
 
 
When they s  aid (they said) REPENT (repent) REPENT (repent)
