Being Boiled - The Human League

Listen to the voice of Buddha

Saying stop your sericulture

Little people like your offspring

Boiled alive for some god’s stocking

Buddha’s watching, Buddha’s waiting

Just because the kid’s an orphan

Is no excuse for thoughtless slaying

People don’t forget this torture

Just because you call her mother

Doesn’t mean that she’s your better

Once more with the voice of Buddha

He’ll say carry on your slaughter

Who cares for the little children

You may slice with no conviction

Blind revenge on a blameless victim

Listen to the voice of Buddha

Saying stop your sericulture

He’ll say carry on your slaughter

Who cares for the little children

You may slice with no conviction

Blind revenge on a blameless victim

Listen to the voice of Buddha

Listen to the voice of Buddha

Listen to the voice of Buddha
