Well
I just can't be happy today / Because mankind has lost its way / The
whole world's going down the drain / All we do is cause each other
pain / False idol 'money', it enslaves us all / we live our lives,
our backs to the wall / The root of all evil, follow the call / Don't
worry 'bout it 'cos we're having a ball
Greed
in the west starvation in the east / The war machine rumbles on to
feed the beast / As the bombs drop to worship the god of oil / middle
east tensions start to boil / Pain, death, destruction nothing but
evil's gain / Heads up our arse, we're not using our brains / Using
common sense really ain't that tough / Drunk with power, but it's never
enough
We're
on our way to destruction day / Why can't we see we've lost our way
/ Gimme money 'cos i'm gonna be the best / As long as i'm alright Jack,
fuck the rest
When
will we see we've lost our humanity? / When
will we see we've lost our humanity? / When
will we see we've lost our humanity? / When
will we see we've lost our humanity?
Pauls
Note: Me in Jello Biafra mode. Originally
titled 'The Devil Commands' this was only played live three times (See
the note on the Unity lyrics). First time it was played as The Devil Commands
was at Basement Studio's gig, Then I upped the game on the lyrics and changed
the name to Mankind and it was played in Camden and Barnet. Again, only
a bad mp3 of this exists.
The
music to this was more along the lines of speed metal with hardcore
punk style lyrics.
