Lyrics

Welcome to the morning news. In its long and deadly war with Iraq, Iran has repeatedly sought international condemnation of Baghdad's alleged use of chemical weapons. The Iranians had a grisly opportunity to make their case [ritual murders] A city in eastern Iraq, recently occupied by Iranian forces, after a brief and bloody siege, according to Iran, the Iraqis bombed the city with chemical weapons. After the defeat the Iranians said the attack killed more than four thousand civilians. Welcome to the VX gas attack [Bethlehem Bethlehem] At ground zero Pro-independence Heavier than air fumes [ritual murders] City with chemical Alleged cyanide gas [Bethlehem] On to Karbala [there are limits to our patience] [Bethlehem] Or Karbala On to Karbala ? hundreds or possibly thousands of victims of one of the worst chemical warfare attacks since World War I What is the difference between Israel's plight? A belief in outside influence Outside influence We have the technology to produce chemical weapons We will not remain idle forever We have the technology to produce chemical weapons We will not remain idle forever There are limits to our patience So efficient [ritual murders] Like scalding water [Bethlehem] A side effect of [ritual murders] Their faces and lungs [Bethlehem] burnt [ritual murders] A sudden harsh smell [Bethlehem] [ritual murders] Two weeks after still Coughing, choking Livid skin blisters Burn often [Bethlehem] They can understand the government's message. In a shop in a working class district one day last week one man demonstrated the idea of a chemical warfare protector by putting a plastic shopping bag over his head Posters, leaflets Nightly radio and television programmes [...believed dead] Dead instructions in the use Of such basic devices As a damp towel A damp towel lined with charcoal To be applied to the face and mouth When the "beep, beep, beep" gas attack Warning signal sounds We're analyzing water, soil, and human tissue samples to get clearer information about the gas attack. Meanwhile, doctors monitor bone marrow damage [ritual murders] Believed dead [Bethlehem] Dead were among Porcelain face Cloud of frozen gas poison Jagged fragment [ritual murders] Meanwhile back on the west bank, they are frightened, [Bethlehem] ?, revere the red, green, white, black colors of the flag tied to the mosque in the distance. [?] What's the difference in religious suffering Palestine jew Iranian Iraqi bombs sun The first cyanide gas warning The first cyanide attack gas warning ...says someone came in a car with an Uzi and killed his friend in a grave down the crossroads by the mosque. The friend of the dead man promises he will never forget [ritual murders] [ritual murders] [Bethlehem]
