lyrics

SMILE, YOU’RE ON FIRE
Enough is enough

Cynicism is mental virginity
It’s time to tear that straitjacket off
And take the monster on
Face it, face-to-face
Gouge its eyes out
Saw its legs off
Saw its legs off

And let it sink
Sink into the sea
Let it fall
Into pieces

Smile, you’re on fire

We love Uncle Sam
He will drop the bomb
Make a “Who’s Got The Biggest Cock” competition
From genuine tragedies
A miracle!
Blood and water
Blood and urine

Innocent blood for innocent blood
Unholy war
Useless martyrs

Smile, you’re on fire.
