Assault & Battery

Howard Jones

[Verse 1]
The lives were taken
For feasts at the table
A life of misery
Ending with a shock

[Verse 2]
Brutal murder (brutal murder)
All hands to the slaughter
Mass torture
All hands to the knife

[Verse 3]
And I can hear the screams
With the knife, the jolt, the wring
They must follow in our dreams
Carrying a twisted sting

[Bridge]
Children's stories with their farmyard favourites
At the table in a different disguise
Children's stories with their farmyard favourites
At the table in a different disguise

[Verse 4]
Don't talk to me of health
Or something someone else will do
We're talking about the act
Of taking life for me and you

[Outro]
And I hear their screams
And I hear their screams
And I hear their screams
And I hear their screams
And I hear their screams
And I hear their screams
