I Will Pray - KMFDM

Thrill of the hunt Eyes glued to the prey Whet your appetite Eat your own on the way Gorge on lions and tigers Bitches dripping diamonds Sharpen your claws Beg like a dog In the land of milk and honey Smell the sweet scent of success A hunter bear down on it, yeah Suckle on its breast Money and cars Private jet to the stars Take it all then some more Feed your feckless little heart In for the kill Out on the take Everybody wants a piece of the cake In for the kill Hey, piggy piggy Hey, piggy piggy Hey Tacky and rich Pathetically kitsch Hard as a rock You're dying for it Got it all figured out With lawyers and clout Eat you alive Keep the suckers bewitched Easy come Easy go Wet that tongue Catch that bone And run run run run run run run run

Some people call them terrorists These boys have simply been misguided (Chorus) I tried to keep my faith alive I'm close enough to trip the wire I cannot keep my hate inside I'm gonna set myself on fire I get closer beat by beat To get the thing I really need I'm fucking terrified Will you be ever satisfied? Day after day innocent people are being deported, interrogated and tortured -- put through the third degree Fundamentalist forces are undermining the integrity of liberal and democratic political structures Radical anarchists, fascists and terrorists are responsible for the violence (Chorus) Our societies are saturated with bloodlust, sensationalism and violence as a result of alienation from oneself's reality How much longer do we tolerate mass murder? I tried to keep my faith alive I'm close enough to trip the wire I cannot keep my hate inside I'm gonna set myself on fire Hand-cuffs and shackles won't frighten us Neither cattle-prod nor electrical-whip will silence us We shall use all peaceful means to overcome tyranny Persist and march on They can't use our shame against us Regardless of race, social status or gender we're all affected I tried to keep my faith alive I'm close enough to trip the wire I cannot keep my hate inside I'm gonna set myself on fire I get closer beat by beat To get the thing I really need I get closer beat by beat To get the thing I really need I get closer beat by beat To get the thing I really need I'm fucking terrified Will you be ever satisfied?

I don't know you You don't know me Nothing is true Nothing is real A binding agreement Man against man They will strap our wrists As tight as they can No need to get hurt Just say these words No need to get hurt Just say these words: I respekt you I will punch your head until you say: I respekt you I will punch your head until you say: I respekt you I will punch your head until you say: I respekt you I will punch your head until you say: I respekt you Bound to each other Living the concept I want to hear you state your respekt It's not about money It's not about hate Shout it out loud before it's too late No need to get hurt Just say these words: I respekt you I respekt you! I will punch your head until you say: I respekt you I will punch your head until you say: I respekt you I will punch your head until you say: I respekt you I will punch your head until you say: I respekt you I respekt you! I will punch your head until you say: I respekt you I will punch your head until you say: I respekt you I respekt you! I will punch your head until you say: I respekt you I will punch your head until you say: I respekt you I respekt you!

Yohoho And a bottle of rum I'm in the gutter But i've got the gun 16 men on a dead man's chest A little lead for a little rest One's for shit One's for shame Now the hurt Fans the flame Yohoho Here's the fun You get to go I get to come Six bold strokes And no new jokes The lost & founds Your only hope Here's the lard In leather glove Answered dreams Straight from above Pull me in Drag me down You can be the kapt'n As we're tumbling Always down Go slow On the torture-show Fear not what you can't see The pulse The pain The ecstasy A hollow space An empty grave The best laid plans are meant to fade

All we want is a headrush All we want is to get out of our skin for a while We have nothing to lose because we don't have anything Anything we want anyway... We used to hate people Now we just make fun of them It's more effective that way We don't live We just scratch on day to day With nothing but matchbooks and sarcasm in our pockets And all we are waiting for is for something worth waiting for Let's admit America gets the celebrities we deserve Let's stop saying "Don't quote me" because if no one quotes you You probably haven't said a thing worth saying We need something to kill the pain of all that nothing inside We all just want to die a little bit We fear that pop-culture is the only culture we're ever going to have We want to stop reading magazines Stop watching T.V. Stop caring about Hollywood But we're addicted to the things we hate We don't run Washington and no one really does Ask not what you can do for your country Ask what your country did to you The only reason you're still alive is because someone Has decided to let you live We owe so much money we're not broke we're broken We're so poor we can't even pay attention So what do you want? You want to be famous and rich and happy But you're terrified you have nothing to offer this world Nothing to say and no way to say it But you can say it in three languages You are more than the sum of what you consume Desire is not an occupation You are alternately thrilled and desperate Skyhigh and fucked Let's stop praying for someone to save us and start saving ourselves Let's stop this and start over Let's go out - let's keep going This is your life - this is your fucking life We need something to kill the pain of all that nothing inside Quit whining you haven't done anything wrong because frankly You haven't done much of anything Someone's writing down your mistakes Someone's documenting your downfall
