steve taylor - over my dead body lyrics
after the n-z-s we were baited by the russian bear
our “liberators” wanted poland for a thoroughfare
i was a victim of december 1981
i took a final beating from the blunt end of a russian gun
you plant your missiles while our people wait in line for bread
you hang an army tank above us by a bl–dy thread
you bought our government they crawl like bleating sheep to you
we know from history that human life is cheap to you
chorus:
over my dead body redemption draweth nigh
over my dead body i hear a battle cry
try and blow out the fire–you’re fanning the flames
we’re gonna rise up from the ashes ’til we’re ashes again
you make a mockery of all that we hold sacred here
you drive us underground in hopes that we will disappear
we seek our sanctuary where the altar candle burns
our dignity’s a legacy the cross of jesus reaffirms
(chorus)
after the n-z-s we were baited by the russian bear
our “liberators” wanted poland for a thoroughfare
rise up my brothers don’t despair the iron curtain’s rod
someday we’ll draw the string -ssisted by the hand of god
i was a victim of december 1981
i took a final beating from the blunt end of a russian gun
you made a memory–the memory will multiply
you may kill the body but the spirit–it will never die
