Experiment Iv lyrics
Song information
Artist: Kate Bush Album: Whole Story
Lyrics
We were working secretly For the military Our experiment in sound Was nearly ready to begin We only know in theory What we are doing: Music made for pleasure Music made to thrill It was music we were making here until
They told us All they wanted Was a sound that could kill someone From a distance So we go ahead And the meters are over in the red It's a mistake in the making
From the painful cry of mothers To the terrifying scream We recorded it and put it into our machine
Then they told us All they wanted Was a sound that could kill someone From a distance So we go ahead And the meters are over in the red It's a mistake in the making
It could feel like falling in love It could feel so bad But it could feel so good It could sing you to sleep
?"I'll bet my mum's gonna give me a little toy instrument!"?
But that dream is your enemy
We won't be there to be blamed We won't be there to snitch I just pray that someone there Can hit the switch
But they told us All they wanted Was a sound that could kill someone From a distance So we go ahead And the meters are over in the red It's a mistake we've made
Hmm hmm hmm, hmm hmm hmm And the public are warned to stay off
