lyrics

Oh little baby play your death rattle.
Let them hear the blood curdle as they feast upon their thrones.
We were told righteous men could do no harm,
But even god herself was beaten to a pulp.

Oh they tore up all the trees where the old place used to be,
And mommy and daddy moved away.
They poured the concrete six feet deep,
Now there's a fucking mega church where we used to play.

Smile, smile, smile, smile.

Can't you hear the metal screech across the tattered bones?
Feel the heat melt your body until you're one with the opposed.
Take a deep breath in, taste the blood of their crusade.
Tongue and cheek, foot and thigh, to the blind they masquerade.

Oh they built their steeples high,
Dug their graves to equal depth,
And no one heard the screams of the cries.
So with a can of gasoline and three lit matches.
Hear the voice from underground, spread it to the masses.

Smile, smile, smile, smile.
