Blowback Lyrics

Album: Enemy Of The Enemy (2003)

 

 

 Step Back from the Blow Back

 Plans that were hatched with the strings still attached

 See there's always a catch When you're livin' thru a blow back

 You're wonderin' why you need places to hide 

 Keep one eye to the sky when you're waiting for the blowback

 Sink into the mud watch out for the scud

 Cos oil is thicker than blood in the world of blowback

 From ally to madman from client to badman

 From Gommorah to Sadaam Starring in the blowback

 Invisible sins Invisible Kings

 The shit we're in gonna drown in the spin

 Permanent warfare 

 Burning up welfare

 Add up add up

 Their share of the hardware

 Rights disposed of

 Government gloves off

 Flick of the wrist

 Summary justice

 Feel the kiss of the U.S. fist

 Hollywood, Hollywood tinsel this

 Fanning the flames of fanatical fervour

 One bad turn always deserves another

 Covert and subvert and secret operation

 Still sufferin the conequence of active inaction

 Tunnelling through mountains building networks of caves

 $40 billion dollars for 40,000 graves

 Collateral damage and friendly fire

 Talking the talk of the undercover empire

 (live and direct from the undercover empire)

 What's the rules of engagement 

 What's the price of containment 

 Can we come to an arrangement

 Make a buck off the blowback 

 They don't know about this flow

 Watch the pipe line and oil show 

 It's McWorld and fries to go 

 Starring in the blowback

 One-sided triangle

 squarin' the circle

 Pentagonal diagonal 

 Caught out in the Blowback

 Is it really all over 

 Are we living in endtime

 Don't we know that there's no time

 STEP BACK FROM THE BLOWBACK

 Control we now have air superiority

 Their only plane was the one we sold them last week

 As leaflets, food parcels explode into nails

 Bush chokes on a pretzel and Clinton exhales

 Sayin' Cool down India cool down Pakistan

 Here comes your new billion dollar air squadron 

 Laying down a pipeline through Kazakstan

 This ends this broadcast live from ABSURDISTAN

 Live and direct from London, Absurdistan
