Paroles de la chanson Deep Dark Waters par Primal Scream

Echoes from the past
Day by day reminders
We swore they shall not pass
I fear the worst shall surely find us
The future bent and spent
In dark enlightenment
The people, they have spoken
The serpent's egg cracked open
Bodies washed up on the beach
Children drowning out of reach
Hear the children cry

This ship is sailing
Into deep dark waters
All systems are failing
We go like cattle to the slaughter
To the slaughter (To the slaughter)

Shadows from the past
Cancelling the future
We thought we'd seen the last
Of the Euro high-class butchers
The fate of mice and men
We're sleepwalking again
Into a mess of our own making
The barricades are shaking
This time in business suits
Not in helmets or jackboots
Pull the trees out by the roots
And shake the ground with thunder

(This ship is sailing)
Into deep dark waters
All systems are failing
We go like cattle to the slaughter
To the slaughter

Our fortress continent
Our values torn and bent
We bomb and when they run
We tell them they can't come
Just like in World War II
We showed no pity on the Jews
We othered them as well
Abandoned them to hell
They're not welcome here
Send them all back there
Where's the enlightenment?
Our crime, their punishment
Our fortress continent
Built on colonial theft
Our European mess

This ship is sailing
Into deep dark waters
All systems are failing
We go like cattle to the slaughter
To the slaughter

Gangsters in uniform
Praying for the coming storm
Judeo-Christian soldiers
Waiting for the orders
To storm the citadels
And fight the infidels
Make a martyr of your son
Teach him how to shoot a gun
Pack his schoolbag with a bomb
And keep praying to your god
'Cause God is on your side
Will your life be sacrificed
To an old man in the sky?
But to meet him, you must die

This ship is sailing
Into deep dark waters
Wise men are bailing
We go like cattle to the slaughter
To the slaughter
