Future Shock

Fighting for what cause? To them it’s unknown
The sixties brought peace and love, with homage to Vietnam
The seventies was Watergate, three-mile island the tragic fate
The eighties we build our A.R.M.S., public scandals in Iran
The nineties you can be assured, bombshelters for the weak and strong
Another bombing, another hijack
We’ll never get our hostages back, brutal murders 'til the end
Atomic safety, non-existent, Chernobyl’s burning
We won’t miss it… radioactivity in their brains
Dumping toxics in the sea, Governmental heigharchy
Killing creatures, extinct breed…
No emotions we must face, rise of the synthetic race
Building empires — demonic power…
The social class claims Democratic, slowly fading to phlegmatic
Computers rule, now we panic…
Prepared for battle, been sold for slaughter
Say goodbye to son and daughter, the future; a dying matter…
Want to live?
The choice not yours
You’ve become prisoners of war, Apocalypse is now at hand…
Inflicting torture unjust to man, merciless killings
Throughout the Land, the holocaust — alive again…
A call to arms
Won’t happen here
With Afghanistan
And Libya
Nuke 'em all, make 'em glow!
The whore of the beast, ten horns from the East
Hail from the skies, cracking the Earth
The walls of the cities, crumble to dust
The nations witness the final blast
Prophets of rage, in the last age
Maybe we’ll learn from Human remains…
(solo: Gonzales)
The politicians dug our grave, for mocking war our lives we gave
The time has passed to make some peace, the guilty minds now ruled by beasts
The world we know, does not exist, no sign of life, the future shock
In Armageddon none survive, the human race can’t be revived
(solos: Gonzales, Garcia)
