Dead Battery

Look I made a mistake captain
If I hadn't thrown in jail he's be alright now
Keep up
How would you like a swift punch in the nose
A mans been done an injustice
Not exactly
Turn it up

(Woah)
Uh, Daffi on ya radio dial
Stay tuned to the base, yo you know we keep it raw
The powers got your back to the wall
But tonight we gonna party like it's 1984
The empire strikes back
Heavy like an Aztec
Steady like the Ottoman
Ready with the hazmat
Black on the Star Line
Take you to the far side
The new world awaits to take and fire on
Welcome to Babylon
Where the streets ain't calm
Since B.C we been reigning on
Feel it thunder storm
From Zeus when he clashed with the Titans
Leviathan biting, tidal waves from Poseidon
Across the landscape
That cause the earthquakes
The cost to cross gates
A price that's man made
She'll bargain for the trade
Or slaughter for the gang
Bring honor to her name
Or march into the flames

(So she told me if I'm willing)
Would you fight for me?
(So she told me if I'm willing)
Would you die for me?
(So she told me if I'm willing)
Would you live for me?
(So she told me if I'm willing)
Then come away with me
(To take a chance at the fire, whoa)

Daffi on ya radio dial
Stay tuned to the base, yo you know we keep it raw
The powers got your back to the wall
But tonight we gonna party like it's 1984
Yea we here to take it back from the wack on the wax
From the front to back, Genocide on the track
From the crack of the whip, to them bricks that you sold
Take it back, tell em we ain't gonna take it anymore
The sound plays, in the street while they downplay
The message and the art reign harder than an autumn day
Birds flying over head
Leaves falling on the ground
Nature on a course
And man built the fort
Working on the clock
While his big brother watch
For the stock
If it drop, then you back to the block
Get shocked or keep it tame
Obey, fall into place
Bring honor to her name
Or march into the flames

(So she told me if I'm willing) So she told me
Would you fight for me?
(So she told me if I'm willing)
Would you die for me?
(So she told me if I'm willing)
Would you live for me?
(So she told me if I'm willing)
Then come away with me
(When) 1984 (whoa)
(When, will I) raw
(When) 1984 (whoa)
(When) 1984 (will I)
