   I want to destroy you
   I want to destroy you
   I want to destroy you
   I want to destroy you
   Well I feel it comin' on again just like it did before
   They feed your pride with boredom then they lead you on to war
   The way they treat each other it makes me feel ill
   Cause if you want to fight you're just dying to get killed
   I want to destroy you
   I want to destroy you
   The talk upon the media and everything you read
   They tell you your opinions and they're very good indeed
   I want to destroy you
   And when I have destroyed you and I'm pickin' at your bones
   You won't have a single item left to call your own
   I want to destroy you
   I want to destroy you
   I want to destroy you
   I want to destroy you
   I want to destroy you
                              - - - - -
