Repeat: The Goons Are Out



So twinkle, twinkle little star
nothing´s too bright and nothing´s too far
some are damned and some are blessed
What do you think we think you are
always on scene, never on cue
So pathologically self-obsessed
in everything you say or do

Set the stage and get on with the show
what you see is what you get and all you hear is all you know
with your eyes on the distance and your hand on your heart
nothing´s too high and nothing´s too low
You´re on the fast lane to perfection
Sorry to say you had a false start
and no sense of direction


I guess you´ve heard this one before
Excuse me for being such a bore
Hey, what´s that smell behind your door?
Say, what is it that you´ve got in store?
Anyway, would you like to hear some more?
There´s a monster sleeping on your floor
They came and raped your favourite whore
Yes, the goons are out and this is war!

How often must I repeat things until you deign to remember?
How often must I repeat things until you deign to remember?
How often must I repeat things until you deign to remember?

Post-modern science will save your arse
when oceans rise and fuel is scarce
Dream of shiny things in your future world
and feed the lepers on water from Mars
Well, nothing´s too cool and nothing´s too hot
Who can see as far as the muck is hurled?
Just never say you didn´t want what you´ve got


Supply the guns and tell the world to like or lump it
Cash in on the falling costs for blood and bone
Strike a deal and someone will pass their stack to you
Your conscience turns to waste but you can´t dump it
When shells fly low you retreat to the comfort zone
But this time it´ll all come back to you

I guess you´ve heard this one before
Excuse me for being such a bore
Hey, what´s that smell behind your door?
Say, what is it that you´ve got in store?
Anyway, would you like to hear some more?
There´s a monster sleeping on your floor
They came and raped your favourite whore
Yes, the goons are out and this is war!

How often must I repeat things until you deign to remember?
How often must I repeat things until you deign to remember?
How often must I repeat things until you deign to remember?
How often must I repeat things until you deign to remember?
How often must I repeat things until you deign to remember?
How often must I repeat things?
