A war zone in the streets, it's anarchy and siege We hope it goes away, graffiti on the walls in modern Babylon, nothing left to save Ooh, feel the rebels heed Revolution undermines belief My eyes have seen this shit before We're barely hanging by the skin of our teeth We've all raped it, the future's wasted We can't save it now Oh, we're dropping; like flies Bye, bye You're dropping like flies Hate is growing fast in a hazy cloud of crack, but it helps us fade away Some inner city queen French kisses his disease with one foot in the grave Oh, and this junkyard we call home is primed and ready for another war My, my, my, the children have no chance and these eyes have seen this all go down before We've all raped it, the future's wasted Can we take it? Is nothing sacred? We can't save it now, yeah. I woke up late in a fresh-dug grave with a conscience in my brain I'm not here to save your world, but mine won't stay the same Oh, my, my, we're dropping like flies Bye, bye, bye bye. You're dropping like flies We've all raped it, the future's wasted We can't save it Can you face it? Selfish living selfish love Can you face it? Can you face it, my son? Oh, my son, yeah Hey!
