Death for Sale
Multi Purpose Chemical Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I think of the cause
Blood Boils!
Politicians pimping soldiers
Prostitutes of war
Well we're not your whore
Playing war games
With our lives
Game over
Everyone dies
No to U.S. Occupation
No to Saddam
Yes to Islam
We see you for
What you are
We know what you're
Looking for
Playing war games
With our lives
Game over
Everyone dies
Death for Sale!
Death for Sale!
Death for Sale!
Death for Sale!
No to U.S. Occupation
No to Saddam
Yes to Islam
Death for Sale!
The opening lines of the song, "Wāhid, ithnān, thalātha, 'arba'a!" translates to "One, two, three, four!" in Arabic, which serves as a countdown before the start of a fierce and impactful track. The lyrics revolve around the theme of war and its ugly consequences. The song opens with a strong statement about the cause of war causing one's blood to boil. The anger and frustration towards politicians who use soldiers as pawns in their political agendas are evident. The lyrics use powerful metaphors to showcase how soldiers are treated like prostitutes of war and how they will not stand for it anymore.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Playing war games with our lives, game over, everyone dies," which is a stark reminder of how war affects everyone involved, and no one comes out unscathed. The song speaks against the U.S. occupation and Saddam, but also makes a statement in favor of Islam. The last lines "Death for Sale!" reiterate the main theme of the song: how war has become a pawn for political and financial gain. The repetition of the phrase throughout the song is haunting and powerful, highlighting the urgency of the message.
