Killing Joke - Inside the Termite Mound lyrics
[Killing Joke - Inside the Termite Mound lyrics]
By day we're dormant
Because it's too hot outside now
Nocturnal notions as we leave our cocoons
Antennae tuned to inhuman vibrations
Shaping the cities
Of the world that's to come
I listen to the sound
The endless construction
Inside the termite mound
I walked past the nursery
All the children have gone now
The rules we've taught them
Are what they've become move past the people
They make me feel so indifferent
Serving their purpose
It's their purpose to serve
A thousand lights
From this honeycombed labyrinth
These winding tunnels
Lead to my place of desire bars and bazaars
Of self-gratification live to consume
Live for momentary pleasures
I listen to the sound
The endless construction
Inside the termite mound
Because it's too hot outside now
Nocturnal notions as we leave our cocoons
Antennae tuned to inhuman vibrations
Shaping the cities
Of the world that's to come
I listen to the sound
The endless construction
Inside the termite mound
I walked past the nursery
All the children have gone now
The rules we've taught them
Are what they've become move past the people
They make me feel so indifferent
Serving their purpose
It's their purpose to serve
A thousand lights
From this honeycombed labyrinth
These winding tunnels
Lead to my place of desire bars and bazaars
Of self-gratification live to consume
Live for momentary pleasures
I listen to the sound
The endless construction
Inside the termite mound
