The Ministry Of Defence Songtext / Lyric

This is the Ministry

Of Defence

Stairs and walls are

all that's left



Mortar holes let

through the air

Kids do the same thing

everywhere



They've sprayed graffiti

In arabic

And balanced sticks

In human shit



This is the ministry

of remains

Fizzy drinks cans

and magazines






Broken glass

A white jawbone

Syringes, razors

A plastic spoon



Human hair

A kitchen knief

And a ghost of a girl

Who runs and hides

Scratched in the wall in

Biro pen

This is how the

world will end



There's the bus depot

To the right

Levelled like

A building site



Those are the children's

cries from the dark

These are the words

written under the arch

Scratched in the wall

in biro pen

This is how the

world will end.
