lyrics
war is overdue
but time has come for you
to shoot your leaders down
and join forces underground
lose control (losing control)
and increasing pace (increasing pace)
warped and we waste (warped and we waste)
in time to erase (crime to erase)
whatever they say (ever they say)
these people are torn (people are torn)
wild and bereft (wild and bereft)
assassin is born (assassin is born)
yeh,woh,yehhh
pose and disagree
destroy demonocracy
lose control (losing control)
and increasing pace (increasing pace)
warped and we waste (warped and we waste)
in time to erase (crime to erase)
whatever they say (whatever they say)
these people are torn (people are torn)
wild and bereft (wild and bereft)
assassin is born (assassin is born)
