Living in the dawning of a century that has long been praised Scary news on the telly everyday It looks more like hell's been raised Plague and poverty, a dead economy And the menace of a sick minority Novel holocaust on a microchip And there's more of that to hit you like a pistol grip Tomorrow's now but where do we go Where does it end I wanna know... Hour zero's come, who's gonna protect us? Everywhere you go you find the new spectres In the city streets and out in all sectors Face them now - here's our MODERN SPECTRES
I don't trust a penny in the world today, this tunnel without light It's going down the drain, that's how it appears to me The country's low has no end in sight Jobs are hard to get, unions seeing red While the taxes rise that some are getting fed Don't you feel the rage and a strong desire To put them up against a wall Load, lock and fire... Tomorrow's now but what have we got (... nobody's safe here anymore) In this land of flowing tears and blood (... where all hopes are running dry)
