Lyrics


1. HOLY SMOKE

Believe in me and send now money
I died on the cross, that ain't funny
But my so called friends they're making me a joke
They missed out what I said like I never spoke
They choose what they wanna hear, they don't tell a lie
They just leave out the truth as they're watching you die
They're saving your souls by taking your money
Flies around shit, bees around honey

[Chorus]
Holy smoke, holy smoke
Plenty bad preachers for the devil to stoke
Feed 'em in feet first this is no joke
This is thirsty work making holy smoke
...Making holy smoke

Jimmy a reptile and all his friends
Say they gonna be with you at the end
Burning records, burning books
Holy soldiers nazi looks
Crocodile smiles just wait a while
'Till the T.V. queen gets her make up clean
I've lived in filth, I've lived in sin
And I still smell cleaner than the shit you're in

[Chorus]
...Holy smoke smells good

They ain't religious but they ain't no fools
When Noah built his Cadillac it was cool
Two by two they're still going down
And the satellite circus just have left town
I think they're strange and when they're dead
They can have a Lincoln for their bed
Friend of the president, trick of the tail
Now they ain't got a prayer, 100 years in jail

[Chorus]
...Holy smoke... Ah !


2. ALL IN YOUR MIND

Look inside your head and find
And tell me now that it's all in your mind
Look inside your head and find
A way deep inside and it's all in your mind

[Chorus]
It's all in your mind (x2)

Revolution, air pollution
Chairman Mao Tse Tung is in your mind
(But he's dead now... He's not very well anyway !)
New day breaking, people hating
Love supreme, but it's all in your mind

[Chorus]

Segregation, preservation
Politicians all are in your mind
Pewter Suta, kamasutra
Even Blankenheimer is in your mind

[Chorus]


3. KILL ME CE SOIR

Remember that song called "Kill me", from Victim's last LP
Too much of a risk for a golden disc, the price he paid for money

Ce soir, ce soir, assassination d'un rock 'n' roll star (x2)

Sing your song, you can't go wrong, tempted his business advisor
No need for alarm, you'll come to no harm, he didn't mention the sniper

Ce soir, ce soir, assassination d'un rock 'n' roll star (x2)

The news is read
The need is fed
One yawn, two yawn, and back to bed
Turn off the light
And hold me tight
C'mon, maman, bend down your head
And just sing on
Immortal song
Fini, belle vie, bonne nuit

Remember that song called "Kill me", a lecture on political chicanery
Of peoples rape, recorded on tape, brought shame to the presidency

Tonight, tonight, one more point for human rights (x2)

Remember that song called "kill me", once used by a man from Galilee
He had nothing to lose, he was King of the Jews, secured his place in History

Ce soir, ce soir, assassination d'un provocateur (x2)

The news is read
The poison's spread
One yawn, two yawn, and back to bed
Turn off the light
And hold me tight
C'mon, maman, bend down your head
And just sing on
Immortal song
Fini, belle vie

Turn off the light
And hold me tight
C'mon

Vick played his part with all his heart, he wasn't prepared for the shock
When hollow lead bit into his head, a new martyr for the book of rock (x2)

Ce soir, assassination d'un rock 'n' roll star
Ce soir, ce soir, assassination d'un rock 'n' roll star

Ce soir, assassination d'un rock 'n' roll provocateur
Ce soir, ce soir, ce soir, assassination d'un rock 'n' roll star
