Art Imitates War (Batavia Remix) ft. Batavia Lyrics

Children eating dirt, covered in trending filth

But happy 'coz they don't know better

Blame their parents for having absolutely nothing

'Cept breakthrough debt and an oxy addiction

Don't report the death rate to make you feel safe

Omit the numbers that are growing every day

And smack your house all the way back to London

It's happy outside, so come out and play

Will you take your guns to church for me?

Then maybe dance the cooch

Can I call you "baby" if you call me daddy?

Then let's kiss God and dream we're rich

Empty those missile silos full of love

Feed our thirsty veins

That dull familiar feeling of total catastrophe

This is our manifesto of Caine

Art imitates war imitates art imitates war

Art imitates war imitates art imitates war

I know it's cool to like shock and awe

But someone's doing the rounds

He's firing up the crowds, firing squad for his opponents

Looks like there's another new Fuhrer in town

Now decent Christian minions are doing his bidding

Out of blind obedience to the throne

Mass delusion with four years free interest

Idiot religious dogma via the phone

Art imitates war imitates art imitates war

Art imitates war imitates art imitates war

Art imitates war imitates art imitates war

Are you still listening? Do you still give a fuck?

Art imitates war imitates art imitates war

Are you still listening? Do you still give a fuck?

In order to cope I have become

Someone completely different

I fucking hate that person
