December 1992
Tell me a rumor and tell me a lie
How big a fib do you want to buy
Buy me a dogma and buy me a god
Spare the bible and spoil the rod
CHORUS: Slave/Irie
Slave/Irie
Repression is the call of the day
No survival, I can�t live this way
Sovereignty ceases under the skin
Cannot stop the Law from breaking in
CHORUS
If you�ve no reason to go berserk
Gainst the System you�re doing its work
Machination is its only goal
It won�t stop until you yield control
CHORUS
Realize that there can be no escape
From mental and emotional rape
In the dungeon that you call your mind
No salvation would you ever find
CHORUS
So you try to get used to your cell
And the torture of your private hell
Down in darkness is where you will stay
No redemption and no Judgment Day
CHORUS
