TIMELORD17 - WAR MACHINE (Video - New) (Soundz80s)

I know, another bloody 'Timelord17' video.. But, I think this matches the song better than the previous video.

This song is my ode to the 80s band 'Sigue Sigue Sputnik' whom I love. Back in 1986, when I first heard 'Love Missile F1-11' it was like nothing else.

You see, here in Australia, if you weren't into 'Barnesy' (Jimmy Barnes) or 'Farnesy' (John Farnham) then you were classed as 'weird' and were subject to countless bashing's in the school yard..

Shout out to 'Campbelltown High' NSW (now Campbelltown Performing Arts School) where the barbed wire is pointed inside to keep the students at bay.. hahaha, that's what we said..

Moving on..

So, enjoy the updated video to War Machine, kinda fitting considering the world is going to pot as I speak..

Cover created by 'Stu Calvert' (the dude who does my remixes), with thanks..

1. War is a fact of life
The year is 2085
Man verses machine
We struggle to survive

B. Screams in the night
Shoot em up
To the machines delight
Shoot em up

c. Man fights a war
A war with the machines
Too many lives have fallen
To a war with the machines

2. The powers to be
Hiding under their desks
Look foward to being scanned
As target for elimination

B. Screams in the night
Shoot em up
To the machines delight
Shoot em up

Man fights a war
A war with the machines
Too many lives have fallen
To a war with the machines
Man fights a war
A war with the machines
Too many lives have fallen
To a war with the machines

3. In order to beat them
One must join the machines
I'm now living as a cyborg
In love with the machines

Screams in the night
Shoot em up
To the machines delight
Shoot em up

Man fights a war
A war with the machines
Too many lives have fallen
To a war with the machines
