FAITHLESS : MASS DESTRUCTION – LIVE (2005)

Από το Live At Alexandra Palace album των Faithless (2005) – είχα την τύχη να τους δω ζωντανά στο Ρόδον το 1999 – ακούμε το ‘Mass Destruction’, σε φοβερή εκτέλεση από τη μπάντα και καθηλωτική ερμηνεία από τον Maxi Jazz (R.I.P.). From the Live At Alexandra Palace album by Faithless (2005) – I had the luck to see them live at Rodon in 1999 – we hear ‘Mass Destruction’, in an incredible performance by the band and a riveting interpretation by Maxi Jazz (R.I.P.).

Whether long range weapon or suicide bomber
Wicked mind is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether you’re soar away sun or BBC one
Misinformation is a weapon of mass destruction
You could a Caucasian or a poor Asian
Racism is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether inflation or globalization
Fear is a weapon of mass destruction
My dad came into my room holding his hat
I knew he was leaving
He sat on my bed, told me some facts
“Son, I have a duty, calling on me
You and your sister be brave, my little soldier
And don’t forget all I told you
You’re the mister of the house, now remember this
And when you wake up in the morning, give your momma a kiss”
Then, I had to say goodbye
In the morning, woke momma with a kiss on each eyelid
Even though, I’m only a kid
Certain things can’t be hid
Momma grabbed me
Held me like I was made of gold
But left her inner stories untold
I said, “Momma, it will be alright
When daddy comes home, tonight”
Whether long range weapon or suicide bomber
Wicked mind is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether you’re soar away sun or BBC one
Misinformation is a weapon of mass destruction
You could a Caucasian or a poor Asian
Racism is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether inflation or globalization
Fear is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether Halliburton, Enron, or anyone
Greed is a weapon of mass destruction
We need to find courage, overcome
Inaction is a weapon of mass destruction
Inaction is a weapon of mass destruction
Inaction is a weapon of mass destruction
My story stops here, let’s be clear
This scenario is happening everywhere
And you ain’t going to nirvana or farvana
You’re coming right back here to live out your karma
With even more drama than previously, uh-uh, seriously
Just how many centuries have we been
Waiting for someone else to make us free
And we refuse to see
That people overseas suffer just like we
Bad leadership, and ego’s unfettered and free
Who feed on the people they’re supposed to lead
I don’t need good people to pray and wait
For the Lord to make it all straight
There’s only now, do it right
‘Cause I don’t want your daddy leaving home tonight
Whether long range weapon or suicide bomber
Wicked mind is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether you’re soar away sun or BBC one
Misinformation is a weapon of mass destruction
You could a Caucasian or a poor Asian
Racism is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether inflation or globalization
Fear is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether Halliburton, Enron, or anyone
Greed is a weapon of mass destruction
We need to find courage, overcome
Inaction is a weapon of mass destruction
Inaction is a weapon of mass destruction
Inaction is a weapon of mass destruction

    Wow! I love how the lyrics call out the mind for the ultimate weapon of mass destruction.
