Heels kicking up the dust heading for the town Dark are the days when the East wore the crown Marxman to the fore, no we're still not sated 'Cos we've waited too long to be tainted (tainted)

So, don't come around sniffing pounds 'cos we'll pound ya Crown ya down ya in the mind bound ya Into suspense recompense you'll be searching But to no avail off the rails hurting

Revolution will be live not televised Systematic breakdown no compromise Dark days lasting longer I break into a canter Realise the reason, treason the answer Deprecate play in the status game Or cascade into the depths of the slain

Dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days (Don't stop) Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days (Don't stop)

Dark days where I am lurking tasks I can't be shirking Jerking back and forth working South to North And East to West bless Oisin and seize Marxman - 360 degrees

Dialectic, I abstract act and negate And no you'll never find me knocking on heavens gate Religion an illusion opium of the people Injustice, so I bust this, till we become equal

And so to the news of a day dark A child was abused man stabbed in the park The unions rejected nine percent Lady Di's dress was heaven sent We got mass confusion therefore mass delusion Media (Media) - a bourgeois institution

Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days (Don't, don't, don't, don't stop) Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days (Don't, don't, don't stop)

(Punt to stunt) (Bear the brunt) (Bear, bear the brunt) (Bear, bear, bear, bear) (Punt to stunt) (Bear the brunt) (Bear, bear, bear the brunt) (Punt to stunt) (Bear, bear the brunt) (Bear, bear) (Marxman) (Bear, bear, bear, bear the brunt)

Beg I won't do, no living to survive And working nine to five with no job pride Wages impractical the boss a mister, mister Treat like a slave for your efforts he's dismissed ya

Docked ya, knocked ya, clean up his slop ya! Suck up to the bourgeoisie and then they sack ya Power struggles run amok and we bear the brunt But Marxman punt to stunt the bourgeois grunts

With past leading present the future consequential Reform fundamental, revolt potential West implanted, East now supplanted Sorry are the selfish ones that ranted But the Marx spark lit the flame in the heart And now the West's ways are dark

Dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days (Don't stop) Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days (Don't, don't, don't stop)

Days of darkness watch me as I spark plugs Bust and discuss thrust, cussed is the heartless Hark to the poet the one who edutains Even if I blow it Marxman remains

Cock-a-Doodle Doo son Hollis has begun Run a little lyrical song concoction Here to put a break on the man He's got a system but the system's out of hand

Overproduction of food is a crime When there's mass starvation a nation is dying How can you justify, stand up and decry The communist when you stand for all this Persist in your madness and be damned As the tables turn to a clenched hand (-ched hand)

(Don't) Dark are the days, dark are the days Dark are the days, dark are the days (Don't stop) Dark are the days, dark are the days (Don't) Dark are the days, dark are the days (Don't) Dark are the days, dark are the days (Don't, don't stop) Dark are the days, dark are the days (Don't stop...)
