Lyrics
Tank
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The wheels of the tank keep turning round and round.
How many megatons will it take to make them turn around? (x 2)
Turn around...
The wheels of the Shadowmen tank (x 2)
Every man is left behind
Every man has lost his mind
Exorcists anthologize
Bounce to the Shadownmen tank
Another missle flying high
Snaking across the desert sky
Oil men energy strapped back
Speed into the bank
The wheels of the tank keep turning round and round.
How many megatons will it take to make them turn around?
Too slow cup with gripping hands
Praying cowboys in the sand
Nothing ever goes to plan
Deep inside me tank
Shells you booty devil's plants
Tripping out another trance
Buffalo soldier's higher ground
Smoking in my tank
Forced by forces
My head is confused
Sometimes I feel that I'm being used
I press all fault to the man in robes
But I can't see the ghosts crowding the road
I can't see the ghosts crowding the road
The wheels of the tank keep turning round and round.
How many megatons will it take to make them turn around?
Awaken Mesopotamia (x 4)
Never left old home city Georgia
World is just called Arizona
Death metal getting louder and louder
Pumping pumping in me tank
Searching, searching
I be searching!
Keep on searching
Searching for the Hindu bomb
I'm searching for the Muslim bomb
I'm on the lookout for the suicide bomb
Get down on your knees and feign-quest for the bomb
Because I'm searching for the Hindu bomb
I'm searching for the Muslim bomb
I'm still on the lookout for the suicide bomb
Get on your knees, get on your knees
And feign-quest for the bomb
For the bomb
The wheels of the tank keep turning round and round.
How many megatons will it take to make them turn around?
