i met a whore from baltimore / she said that i should come inside / said we could make it come alive / and then she said we’d make it die / we wouldn’t cry / we gave it life / and then she said we’d make it die / ‘cause we are gods / we are alive / and we can make things live and die
NOW I WANNA BE YOUR GOD / NOW I WANNA FEEL ALIVE / NOW I WANNA BE YOUR GOD / NOW I WANNA MAKE THINGS DIE
i met a girl from carolina / came inside and then we dined / i drank her wine / and built a shrine / and then i tied her up with twine / i whispered if i gave it life / well then i have to make it die / cause we are gods / we are alive / and we must make things live and die
NOW I NEED TO BE YOUR GOD / NOW I NEED TO FEEL ALIVE / NOW I NEED TO BE YOUR GOD / NOW I NEED TO MAKE THINGS DIE / NOW I’M GONNA BE YOUR GOD / NOW I’M GONNA FEEL ALIVE / NOW I’M GONNA BE YOUR GOD / NOW I’M GONNA MAKE THINGS DIE
if we are gods / we are alive / and we can make things live and die / if we are gods / we are alive / and we can make things live and die

This Glasgow band is less straightforward or formulaic than many others currently treading the '80s post-punk path. These songs are winged. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 22, 2017
Terrific, marauding post-punk that will thrill fans of Idles with its pairing of cutting riffs and wry spoken/sung lyrics. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 26, 2022
