Isle of Man

Ministry · Twitch [1986]

nice place

clean water

fresh air

blue skies

like pirates

we tried it

we took what we deserved

half million

years later

we use up

our reserves

we're crying



'what happened?'

we get what we deserve

we get what we deserve

we get instead the isle of man

the isle of man



i'm walking

through forests

of garbage

waist-high

can't clean it

i mean it

we get what we deserve

gray mornings

gray evenings

it's growing

on my nerves

just gases

you fascists

you get what you deserve

you get what you deserve

you get instead the isle of man

the isle of man



i'm writing

this letter

so no one

will forget

some future

cave dweller

will find these notes

an isle of man
