The Mekons "Trouble Down South" (Korks 24 May 2013)
Versuri/text:
There's trouble down south
Metal keens through the air
Numbers are falling one by one
Sky fills with blades
Sound falls from above
Smoke rolls through the trees
Secure that sector
Move up the valley and take it out
Look out for wires
The trucks move out
The village burns
Silence in the swamps
We hear you guys. Avoid strong light. Stay underground
Hold still there! Movement in the dark.
Actions getting closer to home
In a clean steel dream the plane swoops in
All our children coming home
All our children coming home
This is a Priority Two transmission. We have blue air situation. Zip your suits and take your pills. Secure full masks
Magnum leaps from his car
Eyes glint in the hot hot sun
"Hey guys, where's that plane bound for?"
Over the clouds, over the clouds
"Clear the way. We're coming through."
We hear you guys. Avoid strong light. Stay underground
We hear you guys. Avoid strong light. Stay underground
The trucks move out
The village burns
Silence in the swamps
Over the hills shadows float on the grass
Silver winds brush the trees
Over the hills
In a clean steel dream the plane swoops in
All our children coming home
All our children coming home
lt is imperative to redress the negative body count scenario
All personnel to neutralise the high negative environment
We must stabilise the initial low security profile. No blank
volleys and don't spare the bullets
