Lyrics for Song: Genocide
Lyrics for Album: Smash
Our lives run different ways
Through the rain I see you in the sun
Our star shines anyway
If you wish upon it we are one
1,2,3,4
Dog eat dog
Every day
On our fellow man we prey
Dog eat dog
To get by
Hope you like my genocide
I find it such a shame
Through the pain I see things as they are
We're served up on a plate
The pedestal is high enough to fall
And if in time
We can see the errors of our ways
Would anyone change it anyhow?
Our time is up......
1,2,3,4
Dog eat dog,
Every day,
On our fellow man we prey,
Dog eat dog,
To get by,
Hope you like my genocide.
Dog eat dog,
Every day,
On our fellow man we prey,
Dog eat dog,
To get by,
Hope you like my genocide.
I bet you'd only run,
If you saw what goes inside our own,
I bet you'd lead the way,
If it were up to you to decide,
But it's not
Dog eat dog,
Every day,
On our fellow man we prey,
Dog eat dog,
To get by
Hope you like my genocide,
Dog eat dog,
Every day,
On our fellow man we prey,
Dog eat dog,
To get by,
Hope you like my genocide.
Like a silver flame,
Like a suicide,
Like killing boy,
1,2,3,4!
