Procrastination On The Empty Vessel Lyrics - Time Waits For No Slave - Napalm Death

Procrastination on the empty vessel 

Roll over and over to take a breather 

Is this dereliction of duty 

To no throw a giant stick in the works? 

To labour so rigidly, 

Fleeing safe havens of natural beauty 

Procrastination on the empty vessel 

Toil to the bone so the machines roll on 

Is this vague assumption 

That a call to a halt will signal our untimely end? 

To labour so rigidly, all the safe havens of natural 

Beauty just merge into form 

Not to be seen, tasted, touched or felt

We don't believe that we have the nerve 

We can believe that refusal won't hurt 

We don't believe much in... ourselves 

Nil retribution on the empty vessel 

Bracing ourselves as we smashed our routine 

This feels like liberation 

Photos 

Or a call to a halt that signalled 

Our untimely end (?) 

To have laboured so rigidly, 

Barred from safe havens of natural beauty. 

We don't believe that we have the nerve 

We can believe that refusal won't hurt 

We don't believe much in... ourselves
