Kate Bush
Experiment IV [12" Version]
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
We were working secretly for the military
Our experiment in sound was nearly ready to begin
We only know in theory what we are doing
Music made for pleasure, music made to thrill
It was music we were making here until...
[Chorus]
They told us all they wanted
Was a sound that could kill someone from a distance
So we go ahead and the meters are over in the red
It's a mistake in the making
[Verse 2]
From the painful cry of mothers, to the terrifying scream
We recorded it and put it into our machine
[Interlude]
[Bridge]
"Experiment IV"
"Experiment IV"
"Experiment IV"
"Experiment IV"
"Experiment IV"
"Experiment IV"
But that dream is your enemy
[Verse 3]
We won't be there to be blamed, we won't be there to snitch
I just pray that someone there can hit the switch
[Chorus]
But they told us all they wanted
Was a sound that could kill someone from a distance
So we go ahead and the meters were over in the red
It's a mistake we've made
[Outro]
And the public are warned to stay off
