WITCHFINDER GENERAL LYRICS
"Soviet Invasion" (1982 EP)
1. Soviet Invasion
2. Rabies
3. R.I.P (Live)
1. Soviet Invasion
Here we are afraid to give
Here we are afraid
Afraid to live
Largest nations in the world
They kill, atomic missile, I hear unto
The U.S.S.R. just fights us off
With their crazy words
For you know, you know the red stain hurts
Don`t they know the next world war`ll be the last one
The dying country on it`s knees
Goes 'n drops the atom bomb
And that`s the end of our world
What kind of country is Russia
People dying, truth doesn`t lie
Communism`s lost every meaning
`Cos capitalism`s all in their mind
Warn these words I say what`s the point in this life
Remember I say
This life
2. Rabies
From the doors of the dungeons you know
Down to the bloody gates of Hell
Men on their knees dying
Rather than to rabies smell
Will we survive? I say
From this one and only evil, Invade
The love and the friendship you know
The Lord God above once made
When the dogs lie dead
Yes silent they pray
Women and children
Yeah they die in dismay
The foaming of mouths yeah the sinking of teeth
The people who are left must get on their feet
Will the world as we know it ever be again
Full of people like me and you
A bullet I say is the only way to survive
From the pain and the anguish
Those dogs have arrived!
From the doors of the dungeons they came
Down to the bloody gates of hell
Men on their knees still dying
Rather than to rabies smell
Cold bed of hunger I say
The hand of doom points go
Men on their knees praying
The Lord God above said No
When the dogs lie dead
Yes silent they pray
Women and children
Yeah they die in dismay
The foaming of mouths yeah the sinking of teeth
The people who are left must get on their feet
Now the dogs are dying, time they lay
People surviving, none are away
No more are dying from the rabies smell
The dogs are a dying, they cheer as they...
As they burn!
They burn!
3. R.I.P (Live)
The screams and the dreams and the nightmares it seems
Are from Hell
Things lurk in the churchyard and rise from the soil
Those who dwell
They come from a cult of evil and bad
No relent
To search for the body they seek there that night
Whose consent
Grave snatchers, church gate-crashers
Messing with the sacred way
Grave snatchers, church gate-crashers
Searching out bodies for prey
The corpse it is taken to Satanist's Hill
For its fate
where hundreds of demons and creatures from Hell
There do wait
its heart does not beat but its body is given to Hell
the air it is silent and all that you hear is his bell
Grave snatchers, church gatecrashers
Lucifer drives in today
Grave snatchers, church gate-crashers
Leaving a hole where he lay
With many strange ways here on this earth
I fear
For many a soul that rests in the church
It is clear
Although they are dead and cannot move
They can't rest
For when darkness falls, the snatchers from Hell
They do quest
Grave snatchers, church gate-crashers
Messing with the sacred way
Grave snatchers, church gate-crashers
Searching out bodies for prey
Grave snatchers, church gatecrashers
Lucifer drives in today
Grave snatchers, church gate-crashers
Leaving a hole where he lay.
