Mechanics Of Deceit Lyrics by Napalm Death

Mechanics Of Deceit

Shane embury

Cloacks of sickness / keeping us sweet
Delusional blackness / fictional madness
Visionary blackness / traps are set
Revolting mind doors conspiring our downfall

Which came first ? the lies or deceit ?
Why did the suffering cross the divide ?
The dealer sold his soul / to hide
And left us on the other side.

The business lessons for which we burn
Desolate loops in which we turn
Saga of fools, a voyage of trust
No contracts bound.

Gathering dust
Which came first ? the secret or the crime ?
Where does the loyalty cross the line ?
The dealer sold his soul to hide
And left us on the other side.

Tranquillise our denial
Vengeance is mine
Capitalize / on regret
Kick aside what aspires
Vengeance is ours
Our defence wont expire

Eat-the-shit with-a-smile dont-be-frail
Our word is bond.
Face the wall ; fill the mould that we take
And break with our hands
Sign the line ; its your life
Dont be squeamish
Take he time, take the sweat
Clock back your tongue

Mechanics, mechanics, mechanics of deceit
Glorified, butchered, bathed in malice
Sign the line ; its your life
Dont be squeamish
Take he time, take the sweat
Clock back your tongue
Eat the shit with a smile dont be a frail

Cloacks of sickness / keeping us sweet
Delusional blackness / fictional madness
Visionary blackness / traps are set
Revolting mind doors conspiring our downfall

Which came first ? the lies or deceit ?
Why did the suffering cross the divide ?
The dealer sold his soul / to hide
And left us on the other side.

The business lessons for which we burn
Desolate loops in which we turn
Saga of fools, a voyage of trust
No contracts bound.

Gathering dust
Which came first ? the secret or the crime ?
Where does the loyalty cross the line ?
The dealer sold his soul to hide
And left us on the other side.

Tranquillise our denial
Vengeance is mine
Capitalise / on regret
Kick aside what aspires
Vengeance is ours
Our defence wont expire

Eat-the-shit with-a-smile dont-be-frail
Our word is bond.
Face the wall ; fill the mould that we take
And break with our hands
Sign the line ; its your life
Dont be squeamish
Take the time, take the sweat
Clock back your tongue

Mechanics, mechanics, mechanics of deceit

Eat the shit with a smile dont be a frail

Mechanics of deceit

Tranquillise our denial
