Machine Guns and Peacock Feathers - Ulver

On the eve of the ninth moon

The world’s on fire

Michael and his angels

Versus the dragon

Icarus is falling

Tempting faith

Nothing to hold onto

Against the dying light

Carry the milk or pierce the body with

Swords, machine guns, flowers, and peacock feathers

Altered organ function

Computers, democracy, and nervous disorder

Swords and machine guns

Flowers and feathers

Altered organ function

Nervous disorder

It’s two minutes to midnight

In the garden of delight

And do androids dream

Of electric sheep?

Barrels are burning

Great art will be destroyed

The sleeping beauty

Of the wasteland

Carry the milk or pierce the body with

Swords, machine guns, flowers, and peacock feathers

Altered organ function

Computers, democracy, and nervous disorder

Swords and machine guns

Flowers and feathers

Altered organ function

Nervous disorder

Carry the milk or pierce the body with

Swords, machine guns, flowers, and peacock feathers

Altered organ function

Computers, democracy, and nervous disorder

Swords and machine guns

Flowers and feathers

Altered organ function

Nervous disorder
