War Ensemble Lyrics

Artist: Slayer
Album: Live-Decade Of Aggression

(Jeff Hanneman/Tom Araya)

Propaganda death ensemble
Burial to be
Corpses rotting through the night
In blood laced misery
Scorched earth the policy
The reason for the singe
The pendulum it shaves the blade
The strafing air blood raid

infiltration push reserves
Encircle the front llines
Supreme art of strategy
Playing on the minds
Bombard till submission
Take all to their graves
Indication of triumph
The number that are dead

CHORUS
Sport the war, war support
The sport is war, total war
When victory's a massacre
The final swing is not a drill
It's how many people I can kill

CHORUS

Be dead friend from abve
When darkness falls
Descend into my sights
Your fallen walls
Spearhead break through the lines
Flanked all around
Soldiers of attrition
Forward their ground
GRegime prophetic age
Old in its time
Flowing veins run on through
Deep in the Rhine
Center of the web
All battles scored
What is our war crimes
(Era forever more...war)

Propaganda war ensemble
Burial to be
Bones shining in the night
In blood laced misery
Campaign of elimination
Twisted psychology
When victory is to survive
And death is defeat

CHORUS
Sport the war, war support
The sport is total war
When victory's a massacre
When victory is survival
When this end is a slaughter
The final swing is not a drill
It's how many people I can kill

by johhny chimpo on 2/3/2009 2:37am
ok, i thought it was "the final swing is not a "thrill" it's how many people i can kill" kinda makes more sense and sounds a hell of alot like it

guitar hero: fuck you this song is better than you can ever hope to become in anything.
faggot

by Anon on 9/1/2009 6:20am
I've seen the lyrics from 4 different websites and the all have the same grammatical errors so they were probably copied from the same source. So to whoever submitted these lyrics actually listen to the song first.

by Wombis on 9/6/2009 8:40pm
This song is fucking amazing.

by RottingCarcass on 11/23/2009 10:47pm
why the fuck! would you mention guitar hero?

by Saul on 5/18/2010 8:32pm
Good song! m/

by Sylosis Fan on 5/27/2010 8:21pm
why wouldnt you mention guitar hero?

War Ensemble is on guitar hero: Metallica. Back to the song, WAR ENSEMBLE is greatness. But yea as someone already said Reign in Blood pwns all

by Brutus McNasty on 12/20/2010 10:05pm
Whoever posted the lyrics needs to go re-listen to the song.. And then kill themselves in ritualistic sacrifice Slayer.

The lyric for the first version of the courus is
When victory is really massacre, the final swing is not a drill, its how many people i can kill

by warhead fred on 11/10/2011 6:54am
incorrect lyrics..wrong album..does accuracy fucking mean anything anymore..

by BigDaddyBiscuitSplitter on 2/13/2012 9:20pm
Does anyone actually pay attention to their history and literature education? Squabbling over what songs belong on what album when any true fan would know the answer. Pathetic waste. This conversation is full of obviousness and should at least be as elevated and educated as the actual subject matter inspiring the lyrics. Angel of Death has much more focus and clarity... oh wait what album was that on? Sun Tzu is rolling over in his grave at the ease with which the weak will quickly separate themselves effortlessly, quite like those that believed the gestapo and their ghettos were as bad as it could get... enjoy your history 101 douce nozzles

by Herp Derp on 5/3/2013 9:15am
The wrong place to have an educated discussion is in the comment section of a lyrics page of a Slayer band. You sound fucking retarded and like you're trying too hard to sound intelligent. There's a time and place for everything, and you obviously aren't intelligent enough to see that.

by Herp Derp Sux on 8/9/2013 2:28am
Herp Derp is an a hole who cannot seem to understand his own advice.

by GT on 9/4/2013 9:36am
You misspelled "douche".

by the_masked_psycho on 9/16/2013 5:37pm
Reminds me of Kreig from borderlands 2 lol. Kreig Ensemble

by slayerfan101 on 11/8/2013 6:38am
I came here for correct lyrics and the only correct lyric is the first chorus this needs fixing
