Stranglers, The - Meninblack Lyrics






We're not here to destroy
We are here to employ

We have come to make you function
So we can eat at our functions

We are the meninblack
We are the meninblack
We are the meninblack

Information can destroy
So we'll treat you just like toys

Healthy livestock so we can eat
Human flesh is porky meat hee hee heeeeeeeeeeeeeee ...

We are the meninblack
We are the meninblack
We are the meninblack
We don't approve of artificial food
We grow you for our own good

First we gave you the wheel
Then we made you live to kill

So the best stock will survive
We eat you all alive

We are the meninblack
We are the meninblack
We are the meninblack

We are the meninblack
We are the meninblack
We are the meninblack
We are the meninblack
We are the meninblack
We are the meninblack
We are the meninblack

Stranglers, The Meninblack Comments
  1. m.... a....

    I wonder if anyone has linked to this web page after I suggested it?. I doubt it. But nevermind their loss.

  2. J.... ....

    I was legit scared of this song as a kid!

  3. H.... S....

    When this first arrived during punks death throws it seem so far removed and at the same time so spot on...

  4. e.... j....

    Perfect song to storm area 51

  5. G.... D....

    The Raven shocked the Strangler's post-punk base (like me) into a higher dimension from which we never returned. Unclassifiable, it still sounds radical and prescient, like a message in a bottle tossed back from the future. We now know the message was not a distress signal: it was a warning.

  6. K.... ....

    I was 9 years old when the album The Raven came out. I collect the vinyl lp's of the band now.
    This one is such a nice and extreme alternative song.

  7. p.... n....

    Nobody did it quite like the stranglers my favourite band.

  8. R.... P....

    Completely terrified me at the age of 11; 25 years later terrified my children when they wouldn't go to bed.

  9. P.... C....

    Jet black is a man in black...

  10. T.... A....

    Munchy Munchy...Tom was tought..we not like khak

  11. K.... B....

    Please, Blackmen, help us,come in here, intervene Argentina and kill macri

  12. M.... G....

    I never get tired of this album. This track played very loud in the pitch dark on a decent HiFi is somewhat creepy. As if it wasn't creepy enough already. That's right, HiFi.

  13. S.... C....

    Stranglers ! Way ahead of their time

  14. I.... P....

    BLACK AND WHITE THE BEST LP. BUT THE MEN IN BLACK IS THE MORE. JODEEEEERRRRRRR

  15. m.... ....

    Holy shit man, this song is at least 20 years ahead of it's time. Sounds like something Massive Attack would produce.

  16. C.... H....

    How clever were the stranglers...they knew something we didn't.....

    C.... H....

    they told us

  17. B.... H....

    I'm trapped in opioid Hell, curtesy of the NHS, This album RAVEN, Got many of my mates in the Army educated!!!

  18. P.... C....

    We Are Here To Employ...

  19. F.... O....

    Always one of our top 10 songs. Check out Tripzville Godz here on youtube and never forget the System is the beast

  20. P.... M....

    and none of that Will Smith shite! This is the real stuff :)

  21. j.... y....

  22. j.... y....

  23. j.... y....

  25. M.... ....

    human flesh is porky meat....hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe!!

  26. L.... G....

    Excellent tune from one of the best albums ever.
    I read in a book about these mysterious men in black. People claim to have seen them in the USA.

  27. D.... Q....

  30. J.... O....

  31. B.... ....

    fuck my first Nancy girl

  32. B.... ....

    Fire-fighters tend not to enjoy roast pork at home of a weekend, they have to put up with the smell at work. We are indeed 'porkie' meat.

  33. T.... ....

    Creepy part is the amount of truth in this song.

    T.... ....

    WE ARE THE MEN IN BLACK http://ezekiel38rapture.blogspot.nl/2014/12/we-are-men-in-black.html

    T.... ....

    TOO MUCH Haannss on my web!!! fuck

    T.... ....

    Might go some way to explaining why The Stranglers are constantly ignored by the tastemakers, when they are patently one of the most important bands of the last century.

  34. K.... O....

    Human flesh is porky meat.

    K.... O....

    is for meat

    K.... O....

    Read something by someone who was trapped on a Chilean mountain after an air crash. The survivors tried to put if off for s long as possible, but in the end it was eat the victims or starve to death. Apparently they tasted like pork.

    K.... O....

    @AnnabGW The Hawaiians called western humans long pig

  35. T.... ....

    WHODATHUNK the meninblack are called 'Tall Whites'. Humanoid keepers of the one of the greatest secrets that mankind never knew. hehehehehehehehehehe !

  36. U.... ....

    Superb job! And suitably eerie. Like the way 'The Men' increased in numbers as the vid progressed.

  37. s.... ....

    Awesomeness!!!
