programmes of violence as entertainment
brings the disease into your room
we know the germ which is man-made in metal
is really a key to your own tomb
prevention is better than cure
bad apples affecting the pure
you'll gather your senses I'm sure, then agree to
melt the guns melt the guns
melt the guns and never more to fire them
melt the guns melt the guns
melt the guns and never more desire them
children will want them mothers supply them
as long as your killers are heroes.
and all the media will fiddle while Rome burns
acting like modern-time Neros.
prevention is better than cure
bad apples affecting the pure
you'll gather your senses I'm sure then agree to
melt the guns melt the guns
melt the guns and never more to fire them
melt the guns melt the guns
melt the guns and never more to desire them.
I'm speaking to the justice league of America
the U.S of A, hey you, yes you in particular!
when it comes to - the judgement day
and you're stood at the gates with your weaponry
you dare clasp your hands in prayer
and start quoting me' cos we say....
our father we've managed to contain the epidemic
in one place now
let's hope they shoot themselves instead of others
help to sterilize the race now.
we've trapped the cause of the plague
in the land of the free and the home of the brave
if we listen quietly we can hear them shooting
from grave to grave.
you ought to melt the guns melt the guns
melt the guns and never more to fire them
melt the guns melt the guns
melt the guns and never more desire them.
XTC is a British alternative rock band formed in Swindon in 1972. Led by Andy Partridge (vocals, guitar) and Colin Moulding (bass), the two founding members and primary songwriters, the group went through various musical phases, from punk to new wave to a more orchestrated pop sound. Despite some popularity in the 1970s, the band never achieved mainstream commercial success, but gained a cult following thanks to the originality and complexity of their compositions. Influenced by power pop and Britpop, XTC are considered today a benchmark for genres like art rock and progressive pop. Among the most representative songs: 'Making Plans for Nigel', 'Senses Working Overtime', 'Dear God', 'Generals and Majors'.
