lyrics

the oceans are boiling
the seas have gone red
rivers of blood flow
into lakes of the dead
the forests are brittle
and broken and ash
scorched by the flames
of man's discontent
jack-booted zombies will swarm in the streets
feeding on fear and free-minded peoples
hospitals will overflow with the wounded
conditions erode, disease will run rampant
the riots are over
resources depleted
scraping the bottom
morale is defeated
the sound of gunfire
arrival impending
survival a question
that will not go unanswered
stay in your homes, the megaphone screams
wait there for death, that's what they mean
shore up the walls, sight in the rifles
prepare for the siege, prepare for the siege
do not believe in these lies that are told
they want all your food and your women and guns
government thugs who will confiscate life
kill or be killed, it's kill or be killed
sever their heads and impale them on pikes
serve up this warning to all that approach
the spraying of blood marks your territory
kill or be killed, it's kill or be killed

If you like DeathCrawl, you may also like:

Breakfast with the King b/w Deathwish
by Goatsnake

supported by 4 fans who also own “Kill or be Killed”

Both tracks here are better than everything on the Black Age Blues album, in my humble opinion. Deathwish is a change of style for Goatsnake, being in a much faster tempo, almost punky, still heavy as f*ck though, and incredibly catchy... love it! Master of Alchemy
