The Tiger Lillies
Love Is A Luxury
Love it is a luxury
In it I won’t invest
It’s a monster I will slaughter
My soul it will not rest
Love is a battle
Of grief loss and pain
Old warriors or lovers
Equally disdained
Ow proud we are to murder
Rape pillage and maim
How glorious to inflict
Indignity and pain
How proud the agony
Of our bayonet’s lust
Like a child molester
In our victims we thrust
Love it is a luxury ...
We are the lowest of the low
Pathetic is our pride
Our patriotic duty
Is vile from the inside
Each mumbled word of honour
An empty rotten sham
The flags wrapped round our corpses
Each one of us damned
We lie in holy places
Consecrated by the state
Our religion are mouthpieces
For those filled with greed and hate
Love it is a luxury ...
