Manic Street Preachers
Of Walking Abortion (Radio 1 Evening session)
"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
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"
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, dunno 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
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
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
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? You fucking are who's responsible)
