  • They'll love you too
    They'll love you too
    They'll love you too
    They'll love you too
    They'll come to you
    They'll come to you
    They'll come to you
    They'll come to you too

    They'll worship you
    They'll worship you
    They'll worship you
    They'll worship you too
    They'll use you too (they'll use you too)
    They'll lie to you (they'll lie to you)
    They'll steal from you (they'll steal from you)
    They'll sell you too (they'll sell you too)
    They'll turn on you
    They'll come for you
    They'll hurt you too
    They'll get to you too

    And there will be no apologies
    And no more security
    There will be no cops
    Just men with guns
    In their shiny black uniforms
    And their big black boots
    With their shiny black batons
    And their sleek black cars
    With their fingers on the trigger
    With their fingers on the trigger
    With their fingers on the trigger
    And their skeleton keys

    And there will be no marches
    There will be no impurity
    No more TV
    And no more cavalcades

    And no more horses, no horses
    There'll be no horses, no more motorcades

    There's a sky full of tears
    A sky full of tears
    There's a sky full of tears
    There's a sky full of tears
    I've been awake all night (been awake all night)
    And the sun don't shine (and the sun don't shine)
    And the night's so long (and the night's so long)
    And the moon is in shock (and the moon is in shock)
    And all the lovers turn cops
    And all the lovers turn cops
    Oh, all the lovers turn cops
    All the lovers turn cops

    And no more horses, no horses
    There'll be no horses, no more motorcades
    No more horses, no horses
    There'll be no horses, no more motorcades

    There's nothing to grieve
    There's nothing to lose
    There's nothing to hide
    There's nothing to grow
    There's nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
    This is the apocalypse
    This is the apocalypse
    This is the apocalypse
    That killed the horses
