The Life Brigade - Demon

There’s a kid down in the underground

Waging psychedelic war

While a call girl checks a guy’s credit card

On a midnight crawl

There’s a boy with a laser eye

Shooting the neon sky

It’s an electronic age

The terraces dance to the tune of the camera

It’s a hooligan’s faze

Here we come the life brigade

Watch out for the life brigade

The race is on for Africa

Can we save the poor?

The preachers buy up network time

It’s all in God’s cause

The world sang a song for Nelson Mandela

What a birthday show

The faces were smiling on acid house music

What a way to go

Here we come the life brigade

Watch out for the life brigade

Do you know just what you’re looking for?

When the wind blows in an age of change

The closeness that we once knew

And held so dear

Seems so distant now in a cold world of greed

Hitler’s in the Sunday Sport

An alien from World War Three

Ronnie Reagan’s out to graze

It’s the cowboy’s final scene

The wrappers are wrappin'

Plastic is flashin'

Another rent boy’s caused a stink

It’s a ghetto blaster

Not a major disaster

It’s just the way a generation thinks

Here we come the life brigade

Watch out for the life brigade

Here we come the life brigade

Watch out for the life brigade
