Lyrics U.D.O. – Independence Day
Text:
One electrified eye
Freezing metalized smile
No more cheating the code
The scene is set — emotions disconnected
Welcome to the cyber trail
Laser cops and sirens wail
Held down with magnetic force
Said: come with us — you broke the law
Obey the rules — don’t do no wrong
A thought too loud — and crime is done
No appeal for the common man
Just cold hard facts — in computer land
All freedom burns on eternal fire
There’s no more independence day
Forever gone never have another
No other independence day
Cyborg arms put the straps around
One more second ’till the switch comes down
Flaching lights — a cage of steel
Turns my head into a dead dogs meal
In this world — robotic rage
You’ll understand the acid pain
Do no right — you won’t last long
Remote controlled — under the heel of submission
All freedom burns on eternal fire
There’s no more independence day
Forever gone never have another
No other independence day
No remorse — for human kind
No recourse — to keep your mind
Is this the end of the line
All freedom burns on eternal fire
There’s no more independence day
Forever gone never have another
No other independence day
All freedom burns on eternal fire
There’s no more independence day
Forever gone never have another
No other independence day
No use for humanity
We’ll never ever be free again
No tomorrows
Zero — the number of the year
Zero — the number of the year
