Being Boiled Lyrics

Listen to the voice of Buddha
Saying stop your sericulture
Little people like your offspring
Boiled alive for some gods 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

Cover art for Being Boiled lyrics by Beborn Beton

This is a cover of a 1978 song by The Human League. Although The Human League were in the 80s a synthpop group, that far back they had kind of a cold machine-ish pop, Kraftwerk-influenced. So the original song is rather odd. I think I prefer the Beborn Beton cover.
