Lyrics


1. LONDON'S BURNING

London's burning!

All across the town, all across the night
Everybody's driving with full headlights
Black or white turn it on, face the new religion

Everybody's sitting 'round watching television!

[Chorus]
London's burning with boredom now
London's burning dial 99999
London's burning with boredom now
London's burning dial 99999

I'm up and down the Westway, in an' out the lights
What a great traffic system - it's so bright
I can't think of a better way to spend the night

Then speeding around underneath the yellow lights

[Chorus]

Now I'm in the subway and I'm looking for the flat
This one leads to this block, this one leads to that
The wind howls through the empty blocks looking for a home
I run through the empty stone because I'm all alone

[Chorus]

London's burning!


2. SPAWN (PRE-VITRO VERSION)

Death becomes clearer through bloodshot eyes
As a death from old age becomes nearer
Why can't the livestock for free
We're trading soldiers for steak

Learn to evolve with the new transition
To act upon a hypocritical vision
Discard the old, in with the new
Discard the old, in with the fashion
Learn to evolve with the new transition
Learn to evolve a hypocritical vision
Learn to evolve, learn to, learn to evolve

Who's the bad guy, who's the bad guy
Who's the bad guy, who's the bad guy
Who's the bad guy, who's the bad guy
Who's the bad guy, who

Bring on the ape farm
Demolish the monkeys
Drink up, drink up
Look down on junkies
A new hypocritical look and ambition
The time has come to make the decision, you
Drink up, drink up, look down
I'll hold it back, I'll hold it back

Discard the old, in with the fashion
Death becomes clearer through bloodshot eyes
Death becomes clearer through bloodshot eyes
