Mussolini hangs from a butcher's hook
Hitler reprised in the worm of your soul
Horthy's corpse screened to a million

Fragments of uniforms, open black ruins
A moral conscience - you've no wounds to show
So wash your car in your 'X' baseball shoes
Chorus 2 (as Chorus 1)
We are all of walking abortion
Shalom, shalom, we all love our children
We are all of walking abortion
Shalom, shalom, there are no horizons
