Valentine

[Verse 1]

The razor bites and the shriek subsides

He arches, clutching at his sides

Across the floor, across the tiles

The man is dead, and the razor smiles

A shiny love song, a quick incision

Cut him down on television

[Verse 2]

A people come to this

Beyond the age of reason

A people fed on famine

A people on their knees, and

A people eat each other

A people stand in line

Waiting for another war and

Waiting for my valentine

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 3]

For a million empty faces

For a million hollow smiles

Cancer for my education

Watch the body hit the files

Waiting for another war and

Waiting for my valentine
