Am C
Kill for gain, or shoot to maim
G D
But we don’t need a reason
Am C
The golden goose is on the loose
G D
And never out of season
Am C
Blackened pride still burns inside
G D
This shell of bloody treason
Am C
Here’s my gun for a barrel of fun
G D
For the love of living death
[Pre-Chorus]
Am F A C
The killer’s breed or the Demon’s seed
F Bb C G
The glamour, the fortune, the pain
Am F A C
Go to war again, blood is freedom’s stain
F Bb E
Don’t you pray for my soul anymore?
[Chorus]
Am G Am C G
2 minutes to midnight
D F C G
The hands that threaten doom
Am G Am C G
2 minutes to midnight
D F C G
To kill the unborn in the womb
[Verse 2]
Am C
The blind men shout “Let the creatures out
G D
We’ll show the unbelievers”
Am C
The napalm screams of human flames
G D
Of a prime time Belsen feast, yeah!
Am C
As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy
G D
We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with our babies
[Ulangi Pre-Chorus dan Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Am C G D
The body bags and little rags of children torn in two
Am C G D
And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you
Am C G D
As the madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song
Am C G D
To the tune of starving millions to make a better kind of gun
[Ulangi Pre-Chorus dan Chorus]
