Disclaimer: This is merely a song. Its lyrix harmless poetry to be lost in the oblivion of dead subcultures; never to inspire more than a pacified head nodding to a generic beat. Any implications derived beyond this humble intent of entertainment are purely the responsibility of the listener, and not of another hopelessly obscure rock band. Let's be realistic; what power could music really have these days?
(going out to the Earth Liberation Front and anyone who's ever risked their freedom or been in prison for defending the one world we all gotta share to survive...)
no compromise
this Earth for all must not be jeopardized
predetermined and concentrated placement of incendiary devices
composed of a well-tested timer, igniter, and 5 gallon barrels of accelerant
can take out the roof of a building rendering it effectively inoperational
this type of action should be a last resort
when means of conventional protest and lawful combat
have failed to neutralize confirmed threats to the natural environment
we all gotta share we all have to share for any species' survival
legal risks demand the target's assured destruction
inanimate property cannot outweigh a life
no person or creature may be harmed in this process
just merciless economic devastation to fight the eco-holocaust
...or I guess you could just sign a couple more online petitions
you could even memorize the words to this punk song
and feel a cathartic sense that you are actively resisting some death machine
or you could commit your life to Earth Liberation
a commitment for each of us that takes unique form
united yet anonymous the ELF is fiercely non-fiction
learn Security Culture like not reciting the words to this song
...when fear is the norm love is radical
arson executed with immaculate strategy
can bring down industries of ecocide
