Lyrics

Part 1 Life on Earth is a bloody hazardous affair As in the city, the republic was collapsing away I think the brilliant crust's hiding sad realities to come And there's a decisive battle that we all had that we lost I don't care if the fascists have to win I don't care democracy's being fucked I don't care socialism's full of sin The untenable system engenders rot But what is exciting's the challenge and stimulation That the tensions help keep the creative nerve so taut The absence of profounder transformation in the country Make their hopes turn sour, feelings of let down in irony Obviously once more it could be called treachery Rappel � l'ordre, oh don't you get too revolutionary I don't care if the fascists have to win I don't care democracy's being fucked I don't care socialism's full of sin The untenable system engenders rot But what is exciting's the challenge and stimulation That the tensions help keep the creative nerve so taut Life on Earth is a bloody hazardous affair Impressive malleability of human identity The horrors of the war were to be repeated anyway It was like taking candy from a baby Part 2 We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle Where is the lift, the hope, and the struggle? We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle Where is the lift, the hope, and the struggle? We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle Where is the lift, the hope, and the struggle? Give me the strength, the lift, hope, and struggle We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle Where is the lift, the hope, and the struggle? We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle Where is the lift, the hope, and the struggle? Give me the strength, the lift, hope, and struggle Give me the strength, the lift, hope, and struggle We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle Where is the lift, the hope, and the struggle? Give me the strength, the lift, hope, and struggle Give me the strength, the lift, hope, and struggle Give me the strength, the lift, hope, and struggle We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle Where is the lift, the hope, and the struggle? We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle Where is the lift, the hope, and the struggle? We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle Where is the lift, the hope, and the struggle? We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle Where is the lift, the hope, and the struggle? We got to keep the lift, hope, and struggle [Instrumental Break] [Sample] The following signal was recorded equally on both channels, but is out of phase- [Instrumental Outro]
