Ballad Of Jj Decay Lyrics

Well, gather around now, you boys and listen to the man

He says we've fought divided but united we will stand

We'll sacrifice the older ones, they're living in the past

We'll burn up their religions and we'll all be free at last



We'll put a hat upon his head and then we'll call him God

And then we'll share our health in him like peas do in a pod

This is the story of a man with a future in his head

But no one ever listens to him when he's dead



We're all getting older

The light is on and bolder

We're all getting older, decay



We'll follow him throughout the land obeying his command

We'll dance a sort of hatred that we think we understand

The children came a-running from their houses of decay

And laid the trust upon a fool who found a better way



He preach the words of wisdom with his hands and with his mouth

Then everyone believed him and then he believed himself

This is the story of a man with a future in his head

But no one ever listens to him when he's dead



We're all getting older

The light is on and bolder

We're all getting older, decay



This morning I had another talk

With the German chancellor, Herr Hitler

Here is the paper which bears

His name upon it as well as mine



We regard the agreement signed last night

As symbolic of the desire of our two peoples

Never to go to war with one another again



We're all getting older

The light is on and bolder

We're all getting older, decay



The year had come and gone and everyone began to see

Why did we follow such a fool in such a mindless way?

Let's turn our hatred to this man, we know he's just a fraud

We crucify him with the rest and find another God



How many times have you heard someone is coming here to say

That from your hell on earth that you will love until your grave

This is the story of a man with nothing in his head

And no one's gonna listen to you when you're dead



We're all getting older

The light is on and bolder

We're all getting older

We're all getting older



We're all getting older

We're all getting older

We're all getting older

We're all getting older

We're all getting older
