Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Generals gathered in their masses

Just like witches at black masses

Evil minds that plot destruction

Sorcerer of death's construction

In the fields, the bodies burning

As the war machine keeps turning

Death and hatred to mankind

Poisoning their brainwashed minds

Oh lord, yeah

[Verse 2]

Politicians hide themselves away

They only started the war

Why don't they go out to fight?

They leave that up to the poor

[Verse 3]

Time will tell on their power minds

Making war just for fun

Treating people just like pawns in chess

Wait till Judgement Day comes

[Verse 4]

Now in darkness, world stops turning

Ashes where the bodies burning

No more war pigs have the power

Hand of God has struck the hour

Day of judgement, God is calling

On their knees, the war pigs crawling

Begging mercy for their sins

Satan, laughing, spreads his wings

Oh lord, yeah
