APOCALYPSE SONG LYRICS

Here are the lyrics to a song that I composed sometime ago.

The band features yours truly on electric guitar, electric bass and vocals with Frank Schoen on drums and Sylvie Maile on keyboards and was recorded in Stuttgart and Glasgow. If you are interested in obtaining a CD of it please contact me through my book publishers AUSTIN MACAULEY.

APOCALYPSE SONG

People and blood and smiles and love, all wear their hopes on painted faces
Which twist and torture and scheme and slaughter, and take pride in their own disgraces
Like wars which never conquer greed and poverty
And forget it’s just the evil of commerciality

The earth is a gift, but people its thieves
We’re all just monsters, that our monstrous system breeds

Where is the brain, behind the machine?
Computers, they’re simply ruthless not humanity’s dream
And the police no longer uphold, our cherished law
They obey politicians, and prejudice more

A truthful heart, should be a thing of peace
But living in this world, you get the heart of a beast

Materialism, is just selfish vanity
And surveillance cameras, control freakery
Yet Britannia still rules, she rules a disaster
Now the rising seas, will become our master

No man has the right, the right to do wrong
But presidents just sing us, their apocalypse song.

I did upload the song to EXTINCTION REBELLION as they thought the lyrics were appropriate to their cause but I’m not sure if they used it or not.

Here’s hoping.
