 Well, I'm drunk as a parish priest on the lies that you told us

 I'm sick to the fookin' teeth o' the excuses that you sold us

Wondering how long in your thoughts you might hold Us

Hey man you're no good

 I no longer believe you got my best interests in your heart

 I should've known better than believe them from the start

Hey, Mr. politician its time to depart

we want blood

 We want blood

 We want blood

 Let that scarlet red river turn our cities into mud

 I've heard all the lies that I'm ever gonna wanna hear now

We want blood

 You made promises that you couldn't keep well I guess that's alright

 But whose gonna take my baby out dancing tonight?

 Is my daddy's gonna have to work till the day that he dies

Like he said that he would?

 Let the down-trodden rise with a fire in their soul

 Let the song of the working man make your heart whole

How many times do you need to be told

we want blood

 We want blood

 Let that scarlet red river turn our cities into mud

 I've heard all the lies that I'm ever gonna wanna hear now

We want blood

Indigo, indigo, indigo

Indigo, crimson & black

 All the colours of the flag that I hoist up in the air

 When I've taken my dignity back!

 Let the down-trodden rise with a fire in their soul

 Let the song of the working man make your heart whole

How many times do you need to be told

we want blood

 We want blood

 Let that scarlet red river turn our cities into mud

 I've heard all the lies that I'm ever gonna wanna hear now

We want blood
