Best Weapon

Something For Kate

From a walk to a run

By the time they're done there is only rust

And the official language of fucked up and static

And before he speaks

His machines all agree lets wind them up and march them out

History repeated and read out loud



This could be our best weapon now

Said, hey don't look now



Stripes and suits pushing the numbers through

They treat them like they don't exist

And they count them up like they're matchsticks

And they don't recognise until spoken in a headline

They're just more words

They're just more words that I can't wait to unlearn

I can't wait



This could be our best weapon now

Better keep your head down



Said, this could be our best weapon now

Said, hey don't look now

Our best weapon now
