In for the Kill

Lyrics

Times are changin'
 We'd best beware
 The world is in the electric chair
 The state holds out its loving cup
 Singing power to the people
 But their power's corrupt
 Burning crosses and secretly
 Carry swastikas and M 16s
 Nevermind the pages of history
 It just keeps repeating, keeps
 repeating
 It's always the same
 Seems like nothing will ever change
 We pay to wear the blindfold
 But look out
 'Cos they're movin'
 In for the kill
 In for the kill
 Yankee Doodle leadin' lambs
 to slaughter
 Just for the thrill
 Good things come to those who wait
 good advice just a bit too late
 Any chance for trust went up in smoke
 When a preacher's lust was sponsored
 by coke
 Day after day
 It's always the same
 We pay to wear the blindfold
 Baby look out
 'Cos they're movin'
 In for the kill
 In for the kill
 Disbelievers drink the poisonwater
 Time stands still
 Don't fill my eyes, fill my head
 Till I'm overloaded
 You talk and you talk and you talk
 But I don't hear anything
 Times are changin'
 There ain't no cure
 It's a wasteland
 One thing's for sure
 Ain't no gold to grind the axe
 So keep your fingers crossed
 While you're crossin' the tracks
 'Cos good blind faith ain't
 good enough
 Baby's heat crumbled to dust
 Hooray for the Outlaw
 Keeps movin'
 In for the kill
 In for the kill
 Yankee Doodle leadin' lambs
 to slaughter
 Just for the thrill
 Don't fill my eyes, fill my head
 Till I'm overloaded
 You talk and you talk
 You know I don't hear it anymore
 But you keep on movin'
 In for the kill
 In for the kill
 Yankee Doodle leadin' lambs
 to slaughter
 Just for the thrill
 My word's no good, it's
 not enough

 Straight out of Abilene
 He's bustin' at the seams
 Immune to whisky
 Man it's down to a shot of
 gasoline
 This ain't no Romeo
 This here's a one man show
 Livin' on a dare
 Thinkin' he'll become a legend
 One more fever diggin' for
 fools gold
 Fast lane freeway to the
 glory hole
 'Cos he's
 Livin' it up
 In No Man's Land
 Tonight's the night
 Gonna get to heaven
 Livin' it up
 In No Man's Land
 Too fast to live
 Too young to die
 He named his limousine
 The Mississippi Queen
 Better never look inside
 'Cos things get a little
 bit messy
 This party never ends
 Plenty of so-called friends
 Payin' homage to heroes
 They will never see again
 Where will you wind up
 I'll never know
 Fast land freeway to the
 glory hole
 'Cos he's
 Livin' it up
 In No Man's Land
 Tonight's the night
 Gonna get to heaven
 Livin' it up
 In No Man's Land
 Too fast to live
 Too young to die
 One more fever diggin' for
 fools gold
 Fast lane freeway to the
 glory hole
 The headline read
 He finally made it
 No return
 Baby see him fly
 Livin' it up
 In No Man's Land
 Tonight's the night
 Gonna get to heaven
 Livin' it up
 In No Man's Land
 Too fast to live
 Too young to die
