Carcass - The Granulating Dark Satanic Mills lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

From the ? womb to the tomb

Towerin' fumin' smokes have bloomed

Aloft the emancipated industrial mercantile maroon

Your hearts will be deprived this fate

A penitentiary as consumer villeins

Never to enter through the grim rustin' factory gates

(Chorus)

6, 0, 2, 6, 9, 6, 1

Torn apart in the soul destroyin'

6, 0, 2, 6, 9, 6, 1

The granulating dark satanic mills

(Verse 2)

Subsistin' shackled drudgers and drones

Disassembly line of skin and bone

Collieries not beaches lie beneath the pavin' stones

When chattel black turned to white

Rigid bindin' chains were hidden from sight

The unborn will quench the thirst smoulderin' ? fires

(Chorus)

6, 0, 2, 6, 9, 6, 1

Torn apart in the soul destroyin'

6, 0, 2, 6, 9, 6, 1

Sweat and no redemption in the dark satanic mills... raw

(Instrumental break)

(Bridge)

An existence, subservient, binded you'll see

'A workin' class hero is somethin' to be'

An existence, subservient, blinded you'll seed

A workin' class hero is somethin' to bleed
