Elegant Machinery State Of The Nation
A little child was being sacrificed
With a bullet through the head
Shots from the Magnum 45
And now that child is dead
She got killed by an accident
During a drug affair
The bullet was meant for another one
Life is so unfair
CHORUS
Talking about the state of the nation
What makes it turn around
Trying to solve the questions
Stated in my mind
Children on the battlefield
Fighting for survival
Hoping for a trip to Heaven
They are hoping for God's arrival
You read about it in your paper
You see it on TV
Soon enough you will forget
Still you blame the society
CHORUS
CHORUS
A mother reads the notice
It says her child is dead
Her heart is filled with fury
It was the bullet through the head
