Lyrics[]
- Generals gathered in their masses
- Just like witches at black masses
- Evil minds that plot destruction
- Sorcerers of deaths 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!
- Politicians hide themselves away
- They only started the war
- Why should they go out to fight?
- They leave that role to the poor
- Time will tell on their power minds
- Making war just for fun
- Treating people just like pawns in chess
- Wait till their judgement day comes, yeah!
- Now in darkness, world stops turning
- As the war machine keeps burning
- No more war pigs of the power
- Hand of God has sturck 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!
