All is quiet on the western front,
There appears to be a lull.
John and jane doe are sleeping well tonight
With the little thoughts inside their skulls.
Salome she's undressed to the nines
Although a few pounds fatter.
She's got pavlov's bells on her ankles and wrists,
She coming at you with her platter.
I stole down to the waterfront
To escape the desert heat.
What on earth you gotta do around here
To try and get yourself a drink
Heard john the baptist preaching
"make way for the king,
But if you wanna recognize him,
You gotta tell me all your sins"

They are building a new gallows
For when you show up on the street.
Polishing the electric chair,
They're gonna give you a front row seat.
Heard a sneer outside the garden;
Salutation so well-heeled:
"welcome all you suckers to struggleville"

I've been trying to negotiate peace
With my own existence.
She's gotta stockpile full of weaponry;
She breaking every cease-fire agreement.
Whole thing is full of decay
Just as sure as i'm made of dust,
And into rust i know the beast is falling.
