Headless Heroes lyrics

Jews and the Arabs

Semitic pawns in the master game

The player who controls the board

Sees them all as the same

Basically cannon fodder

Left wing and right wing

Political pawns in the master game

The player who controls the board

Sees them all as the same

Basically cannon fodder

Nobody knows who the enemy is

'Cause he never goes in hiding

He's slitting our throats

Right in front of our eyes

While we pull the casket he's riding

Better get it together

Better get it together

And see what's happening

To you and you and you

Niggers and crackers

Racial pawns in the master game

The player who controls the board

Sees them all as the same

Basically cannon fodder

Industry and War Machine

These are the kings in the master game

The player who controls the board

And the Kings are the same

We are the cannon fodder

Nobody knows who the enemy is

Cause he never goes in hiding

He's slitting our throats

Right in front of our eyes

While we pull the casket he's riding

Better get it together

Better get it together

And see what's happening

To you and you and you
