track 4 on World Turtle's Groove Taboo cassette GABC 10 from 1992

lyrics

New Dark Ages (lyrics P McMahon music P McMahon 1991)

It's weakness of the species
That we subdivide ourselves
So the problem just increases
We don't relate to anyone else

It's a stupid affectation
To be so proud of what you are
Cos your colour creed & nation
They're just the luck of the draw

There's no violation no disaster worse than war
There's no flag or nation that's worth dying for

They're gonna unleash the tigers
They're gonna let slip the dogs of war
They're gonna unlock the cages

They're gonna lead us into the new dark ages

There's a problem with religion
Persecution seems the norm
Cos it's not a free decision
It just depends on where you're born

No justification No excuse for holy war
There's no God or nation that's worth killing for

And when the iron fist of state loses control
Old hatreds crawl out like a scorpion from a stone
One more chapter lined in red
Let history count the dead
once again

No belief or ism justifies the twisted knife
No political system means more than one life
