GWAR - Parting Shot lyrics
[GWAR - Parting Shot lyrics]
We came and we conquered
All that we saw now here's a parting shot
Right across the jaw
Before I take my leave of Earth
There's some things I'd like off my chest
A final chance to set things straight
And leave no room to guess
How to conduct Earth's affairs
After GWAR has retreated
To ensure that destiny
Will see the pigs defeated
For it seems fate hath decreed
That we soon shall be parted
And I'll leave you
With a chance to win the war we started
From the time we made your race
From the first words you spoke
We saw the law that rules your lives
Is just a joke
Thou shalt not kill? You make me laugh
Far from criminal it's craft
Thou shall not steal? Come on, get real
Do what you will, do as you feel
We came and we conquered
But before that we saw
Let "Do what thy wilt"
Be the whole of the law
What will you do when we are gone?
The filthy few will carry on!
We came and we conquered
All that we saw now here's a parting shot
Right across the jaw
Priests are raping choir boys
Cops are paid to kill
Doctors spreading Syn's disease
Every time you take a pill
The courts are run by liars
Judges are more fun on fire
And their bosses, even worse
Politicians, thricely cursed
From the time we made your race
From the first words you spoke
We saw the law that rules your lives
Is just a joke we came and
We conquered all that we saw
Now here's a parting shot for you
Here's a parting shot for you
Your God's long dead
So don't waste your time
On overzealous hypocrites
Who call chaos a crime eat the rich
Kill the poor worship always
Your masters, GWAR! Never trust your parents
Especially when they're older
Always use a beer koozie
It keeps it that much colder!
Do all this and ten times more
I'll make sure that we stop on tour
And get you up to date with war
We curse the Earth, forever more!
From the time we made your race
From the first words you spoke
We saw the law that rules your lives
Is just a joke we came and
We conquered all that we saw
So here's a parting shot for you
Here's a parting shot for you
Here's a parting shot for you
Right across your fucking jaw
All that we saw now here's a parting shot
Right across the jaw
Before I take my leave of Earth
There's some things I'd like off my chest
A final chance to set things straight
And leave no room to guess
How to conduct Earth's affairs
After GWAR has retreated
To ensure that destiny
Will see the pigs defeated
For it seems fate hath decreed
That we soon shall be parted
And I'll leave you
With a chance to win the war we started
From the time we made your race
From the first words you spoke
We saw the law that rules your lives
Is just a joke
Thou shalt not kill? You make me laugh
Far from criminal it's craft
Thou shall not steal? Come on, get real
Do what you will, do as you feel
We came and we conquered
But before that we saw
Let "Do what thy wilt"
Be the whole of the law
What will you do when we are gone?
The filthy few will carry on!
We came and we conquered
All that we saw now here's a parting shot

Here's a parting shot for you
Here's a parting shot for you
Right across your fucking jaw
