Lyrics KMFDM – Quake

Text:

«if you’d managed to flee from your home to escape the bombs and bullets
and made it to the safety of a neighbouring country
you might think the worst of your ordeal was over
and then you must go back into the warzone»

strength in numbers, a force to be reckoned
follow no leader, second to none
swarms of locusts, no need to be beckoned
come, see, conquer, move on
all cultures are built on inequality
oppression, injustice, give or take
backed by fallacious ideology
time to wake, make or break

quake, let the earth shake
shock, let the planet rock
rumble in the jungle
rock
shake the foundation
rock a rumination

rock

flowers of debauchery, mercenary seed
behold the deluge as the levees break
a wretched ?
stampede
nothing but scorched earth in its wake
born and raised in slavery and need
no future, hope, reality
insatiable want, intransigent greed
down and out, totality

quake, let the earth shake
shock, let the planet rock

rumble in the jungle
rock
shake the foundation
rock a rumination

strength in numbers, a force to be reckoned
follow no leader, second to none
swarms of locusts, no need to be beckoned
come, see, conquer, move on
born and raised in slavery and need
no future, hope, reality
insatiable want, intransigent greed
down and out, totality

quake, let the earth shake
shock, let the planet rock
rumble in the jungle
rock
shake the foundation
rock a rumination

rock

quake, let the earth shake
shock, let the planet rock
quake, let the earth shake
shock, let the planet rock
