THE DAY BEFORE


So what if we manage to stop cruise 
Cruising in, will it make any fucking difference? 
To the inevitable countdown to world war three, 
The power monger’s decision 
Will it be our lifelong stance, or our only chance, 
To prevent our world’s destruction? 
Will it be? 

 You fucked old Yankee crony git 
 You screwed up bastard commie shit 
 You evil hag with blood stained hands 
 Fuck you, fucking hang... 

Fuck it, I just can’t see any point in singing 
Yet another wanky war song... the accepted 
Target... can’t see no point in mouthing off about 
Atomic power... they know the risk involved, 
But still freely fuck with our lives... you know 
What they're doing yet still you let them... you 
Think it will never happen... push it to the corner 
Of them mind and forget it... for it’s so much more 
Comforting to ‘relax’ and don’t do it... 

 You fucked old Yankee crony git 
 You screwed up bastard commie shit 
 You evil hag with blood stained hands 
 Fuck you, fucking hang... 

Alternative to this, the masses join the CND 
And fly it’s helpless protest banner on demos 
Listen to the whining wanky labour party 
And wait for them to annihilate the fucking lot of us 
Pathetic! You fucking bunch of jokers 
When you hear the four-minute warning 
"It’s too fucking late " 
See your family and friends perish - the eyes 
Melting - the skin shrivelling 
Blood boiling  bomb, death, listen, now 

 You fucked old Yankee crony git 
 You screwed up bastard commie shit 
 You evil hag with blood stained hands 
 Fuck you, fucking hang... 

There’s one minute left in the game to play 
Since that day in forty-five we have never had a say 
Was it a solution to combat the right? 
Or just to stay ahead and never done fight 
Thatcher’s plaything in the name Manhattan 
Another Hiroshima for her to flatten 
The protest signs they are spread across the earth 

But will our protests pay their worth?
