Mechanics Of Deceit Lyrics - Enemy Of The Music Business - Napalm Death

Cloaks of sickness/ keeping us sweet 

Delusional blackness/ fictional madness 

Visionary blackness/ traps are set 

Revolving mind-doors/ conspiring our downfall 

Which came first? The lies or deceit? 

Why did the suffering cross the divide? 

The dealer sold his soul/ to hide 

And left us on the other side 

The business lessons for which we burn 

Desolate loops in which we turn 

Saga of fools, a voyage of trust 

No contracts bound 

Gathering dust 

Which came first? The secret or the crime? 

Where does the loyalty cross the line? 

The dealer sold his soul to hide 

And left us on the other side

Tranquilize our denial 

Vengeance is mine 

Capitalize/ on regret 

Kick aside what aspires 

Vengeance is ours 

Our defence won't expire 

Eat the shit with a smile/ don't be frail 

Our word is bound 

Face the wall; fill the mould that we take 

And break with our hands 

Sign the line; it's your life 

Don't be squeamish 

Take the time, taste the sweat 

Choke back your tongue 

Mechanics, mechanics, mechanics of deceit 

Glorified, butchered, bathed in malice 

Photos 

Sign the line; it's your life 

Don't be squeamish 

Take the time, taste the sweat 

Choke back your tongue 

at the shit with a smile, don't be frail 

Our word is bound 

Face the wall; fill the mould that we take 

And break with our hands 

Mechanics of deceit (x3) 

Tranquilize our denial 

Vengeance is mine 

capitalize on regret 

Kick aside what aspires 

Vengeance is ours 

Our defence won't expire--so beware!
