Manic Street Preachers - IfwhiteAmericatoldthetruthforonedayitsworldwouldfallapart Lyrics
Next Thursday you're invited to watch Rising Tide's live coverage
of a gala tribute in salute to Ronald Reagan.
Host Haley Barbour joins special guest lady Margaret
Thatcher in celebrating the former president's 83 birthday.
Ticket's are 1000 Dollars a plate but you can see the event free on GOP TV.
Images of perfection, suntan and napalm
Grenada - Haiti - Poland - Nicaragua
Who shall we choose for our morality
I'm thinking right now of Hollywood tragedy
Big mac: smack: phoenix r: please smile y'all
Cuba, Mexico can't cauterize our discipline
Your idols speak so much of the abyss
Yet your morals only run as deep as the surface
(If white)
Tipper Gore was a friend of mine
(America)
I love a free country
(told the truth)
The stars and stripes and an apple for mommy
(for one day)
Conservative say: there ain't no black in the union jack
Democrat say: there ain't enough white in the stars and stripes
Compton - Harlem - a pimp fucked a priest
The white man has just found a new moral saviour
Vital stats - how white was their skin
Unimportant - just another inner-city drive-by thing
Morning - fine - serve your first coffee of the day
Real privilege, it will take your problems all away
Number one - the best - no excuse from me
I am here to serve the moral majority
Cool - groovy - morning - fine
(If white)
Tipper Gore was a friend of mine
(America)
I love a free country
(told the truth)
The stars and stripes and an apple for mommy
(for one day)
Zapruder the first to masturbate
The world's first taste of crucified grace
And we say: there's not enough black in the union jack
And we say: there's too much white in the stars and stripes
Fuck the Brady bill
Fuck the Brady bill
If God made man they say
Sam Colt made him equal

A little bit, remind me to Annalisa from PIL
Life is lead weights, pendulum died
Pure or lost, spectator or crucified
Recognised truth acedia's blackest hole
Junkies winos whores the nation's moral suicide
Loser - liar - fake - phoney
No-one cares, everyone is guilty
Fucked up - don't know why - you poor little boy
We are all of walking abortions
Shalom shalom we all love our children
We all are of walking abortions
Shalom shalom there are no horizons
Mussolini hangs from a butcher's hook
Hitler reprised in the worm of your soul
Horthy's corpse screened to a million
Tisu revived, the horror of a bullfight
Fragments of uniforms, open black ruins
A moral conscience - you've no wounds to show
So wash your car in your 'X' baseball shoes
We all are of walking abortions
Shalom shalom we all love our children
We are all of walking abortions
Shalom shalom there are no horizons
Little people in little houses
Like maggots small blind and worthless
The massacred innocent blood stains us all
Who's responsible - you fucking are
Who's responsible - you fucking are
Who's responsible - you fucking are
Who's responsible - you fucking are
Who's responsible
what a beautiful indictment of the human race. and correct too: we've destroyed the planet and are only worsening our destruction. really sorry, future humans. we like you are weak hateful beings who need to be wiped from existence
what a legacy this paints , and on the othr side we have conquering the universe...
@steven fagan we ain't getting off this planet, and thank fuck for that. the rest of the universe can sigh in relief (not that they'd be any better if they were the culmination of an iterative process similar to earthly evolution, which lets the worst among a species go on to breed while the weak are killed). life is the problem really, it's inextricably parasitic to other life.
06hatter The spoken introduction from Hubert Selby Jr. might be a clue: that we exist in some kind of time loop or reincarnation cycle. We may trapped in a realm that is a simulation of what a putative Creator intended. In another MSP song: "I recognise dim traces of creation".
Welp, now I know where Serj Tankian got his entire vocal style from.
Lyrics:
[Sampled Intro]
I knew that someday I was gonna die. And I knew before I died
Two things would happen to me. That number one, I would regret my entire life. And number two, I would want to live my life over again
[Verse 1]
Life is lead weights, pendulum died
Pure or lost, spectator or crucified
Recognised truth acedia's blackest hole
Junkies, winos, whores; the nation's moral suicide
Loser, liar
Fake or phoney? No one cares
Everyone is guilty
Fucked up, don't know why, you poor little boy
[Chorus]
We are all of walking abortions
Shalom shalom we all love our children
We all are of walking abortions
Shalom shalom there are no horizons
[Verse 2]
Mussolini hangs from a butcher's hook
Hitler reprised in the worm of your soul
Horthy's corpse screened to a million
Tiso revived, the horror of a bullfight
Fragments of uniforms, open black ruins
A moral conscience - you've no wounds to show
So wash your car in your 'X' baseball shoes
[Chorus]
We are all of walking abortions
Shalom shalom we all love our children
We all are of walking abortions
Shalom shalom there are no horizons
[Outro]
Little people in little houses
Like maggots small blind and worthless
The massacred innocent blood stains us all
Who's responsible - you fucking are
Who's responsible - you fucking are
Who's responsible - you fucking are
Who's responsible - you fucking are
Who's responsible
Some great philosopher from the 1960's said "We're all one up from a wank" Good to remember if somebody thinks they're something special!!!
Fuck Valerie Solanas, Fuck Feminism.
Fucked up-dunno why-you poor little boys. See above.
LIFE IS LEAD WEIGHTS PENDULUM DIED
Mussolini hangs from a butcher's hook. Hitler reprised in the worm of your soul.
WHO'S RESPONSIBLE YOU FUCKING ARE WHO'S RESPONSIBLE?
