Killing Joke
EP • 1979
The sky is turning grey Bodies walk around me It's just another day Waiting for the dream There's something in the air Everybody can feel it See a future man Listen to his screaming I wake up everyday Put on my stereo Chaos for breakfast There's something in the air Everybody can feel it Red sky in the morning Four minute warning

Our destination is nowhere Our feelings are destroyed We've got nothing at all This is life in the fall We keep searching for the positive We're using everything We got nothing at all This is life in the fall Are you receiving... Are you receiving... Are you receiving... When you're watching TV creating lunacy We'll treat your heads with our ideas of space We're like a beam to infinity Relating you to me Don't you see what we mean I'm sure you'll understand...yeah Are you receiving... Are you receiving... Are you receiving... There's some survival here It's so boring out there To find a group control 'Cause they're frightened of your soul No more motivation, total domination But forget, but forget to say it's getting subtle This is an order from the United Police Force of Great Britain The minds of the young people today are being infiltrated by the so-called "beat generation" These people's identification are on file We have orders from the new government to detain these people immediately These people must be detained immediately These people must be detained immediately Ha Ha Ha Are you receiving... Are you receiving... Are you receiving... Are you receiving... Are you receiving... Are you receiving... Are you receiving... Are you receiving...
