lou reed - kill your sons (demo) lyrics
[verse]
all you drunken congressmen
are getting out the vote
by shipping out the youngest
to war in tax+paid boats
and filling up your jails with youth
who will not drink this swill
you’ve broken all our hearts
but you cannot break our wills
[chorus]
you know you’re gonna k!ll your sons
you know you’re gonna have to k!ll, k!ll all your sons
you know you’re gonna k!ll, k!ll all your sons
before they reclaim the land
[verse]
the politician seethes with rage
but cannot find the words
to express the hatred that he feels
for all the boys and girls
big businesses has different ways
to take care of the waste
they send our sons off overseas
blood’s what they like to taste
[chorus]
you know you’re gonna k!ll your sons
you know you gotta k!ll, k!ll all of your sons
you know you gotta k!ll, k!ll all your sons
before they reclaim our land
[verse]
sat+rday, the news is war
and also sunday, too
but silver days and dark fog days
is war and war to you
the president and friends and vice
enjoy the things they do
those who aren’t k!lled are jailed
it’s a pleasure for the few
[chorus]
don’t you know you gotta k!ll your sons
don’t you know you gotta k!ll, k!ll all of your sons
don’t you know you gotta k!ll, k!ll all your sons
before they reclaim the land
[verse]
“things aren’t black and white, you know,”
i heard an old guy say
while drinking down his whiskey
and eating charcoaled steak
“i like what i heard the president say
i think it was yesterday
k!ll the yellow f+ggots, if need be, with my own hands.”
[chorus]
don’t you know you gotta k!ll your sons
don’t you know you gotta k!ll, k!ll all of your sons
don’t you know you gotta k!ll, k!ll all of your sons
before they reclaim the land
[verse]
down through the age of history
the young look to the old
while thinking they’re the wiser
to have still survived the world
and now they think the kids are clowns
who need more than a scold
what they don’t know is that the youngest of us
have already been old
[chorus]
don’t you know you gotta k!ll, k!ll all of your sons
don’t you know you gotta k!ll, k!ll all your sons
don’t you know you gotta k!ll, k!ll all your sons
before they reclaim the land
