Armageddon Days Are Here Lyrics - The The

They're 5 miles high as the crow flies 

Leavin' vapour trails against a blood red sky 

Movin' in from the east toward the west 

With balaclava helmets over their heads, yes! 

But if you think that jesus christ is coming 

Honey you've got another thing coming 

If he ever finds out who's hi-jacked his name 

He'll cut out his heart and turn in his grave 

Islam is rising 

The christians mobilising 

The world is on its elbows and knees 

It's forgotten the message and worships the creeds 

It's war, she cried, it's war, she cried, this is war 

Drop your possessions, all you simple folk 

You will fight them on the beaches in your underclothes 

You will thank the good lord for raising the union jack 

You'll watch the ships out of harbour 

And the bodies come floating back 

If the real jesus christ were to stand up today 

He'd be gunned down by the C. I. A. 

Oh, the lights that now burn brightest behind stained glass 

Will cast the darkest shadows upon the human heart 

But god didn't build himself that throne 

God doesn't live in israel or rome 

God belong to the yankee dollar 

God doesn't plant the bombs for hezbollah 

God doesn't even go to church 

And god won't send us down to allah to burn 

No, god will remind us what we already know 

That the human race is about to reap what it's sown 

The world is on its elbows and knees 

It's forgotten the message and worships the creeds 

Armageddon days are here again
