Fear Lyrics - Singles - Zounds

Sing a song of violence and listen for the sound 

All the little soldiers start to come around 

Start it with a rumour, a whisper in an ear 

Suspision don't take very long before it turns to fear 

??? Said I need a reason, made of up and low ??? 

??? Feel what they're fighting, just tell them where to go ??? 

Give the chance of glory, give the chance of fame 

Give the boy an enemy, give the dog a name 

Keep the factions fighting, start them off the school 

Keep the factions fighting so you divide and rule 

Football teams are splendid and fashion just a tool 

Keep the factions fighting so you divide and rule 

Fear can be a bum thing 

A silly and a dumb thing 

Fear can be the one thing 

That keeps us all apart 

Frightened of the humans and frightened of their stares 

Frightened of the poisons they pump into the air 

Frightened of the chemicals they spray upon the land 

Frightened of the power they hold within their hands 

Frightened of bureaucracy and frightened of the law 

Frightened of the government and who it's working for 

Frightened of the children who won't know who to cope 

With a world in rack and ruin from their technocratic dope, dope, dope 

Fear can be a bum thing 

A silly and a dumb thing 

Fear can be the one thing 

That keeps us in the dark 

Frightened of the humans, frightened of their stares 

Frightened of the poisons pumped into the air 

Frightened of the chemicals they spray upon the land 

Frightened of the power they hold within their hands 

Frightened of bureaucracy and frightened of the law 

Frightened of the government and who it's working for 

Frightened of the children who won't know who to cope 

With a world in rack and ruin from their technocratic dope, dope, dope 

Fear can be a bum thing 

A silly and a dumb thing 

Fear can be the one thing 

That keeps us in the dark 

Fear can be a bum thing 

A silly and a dumb thing 

Fear can be the one thing 

That keeps us all apart 

Frightened of the humans, frightened of their stares 

Frightened of the poisons pumped into your air 

Frightened of the chemicals spayed upon my land 

Frightened of the power hold within their hands 

Frightened of bureaucracy, frightened of the law 

Frightened of the government who's actions lead to war 

Frightened of the children who won't know who to cope 

With a world in rack and ruin from their technocratic dope, dope, dope 

Fear can be a bum thing 

A silly and a dumb thing 

Fear can be the one thing 

That keeps us in the dark 

Fear can be a bum thing 

A silly and a dumb thing 

Fear can be the one thing 

That keeps us all apart
