WELCOME TO THE ERA OF FEAR

No wonder the willow weeps
It hears humanity crying in its sleep
So frightened of dying
So frightened of living
See how they run from the sun
Hear the cry, cover up or you die
Paranoia, welcome to the era of fear

Put out that fag your polluting my air
The booze is gonna get ya, take care
The grim reaper is everywhere
Don’t you think you should lose weight
Christ no, you can’t eat that
Living it seems is in the sunflower seed

So frightened of dying
So frightened of living
See how they run, paranoia
Welcome to the era of fear

See how they run, from everyone
Even lovings a sin
Skin to skin
In the heat of the night
When the time is oh so right
Hear lovers sigh, cover up or you die
Pleasure killer, and the moment is gone
Paranoia, welcome to the era of fear
