[Intro]
There was a scratching sound and it was hard not to hear it
And then the whole record jumped
It was only then that I appreciated what I had'< br/>When I didn't have it anymore
When I didn't have it anymore
There are no hymns today
There are no hymns today
There are no hymns today
There are no hymns, no hymns
[Verse 1]
In a pile you set books on fire
Art leaves the country
Music degenerates
The rest we know
This is how we hang the pictures
The speakers remain silent
White noise, brown sound
But what if I don't
What is when I don't
What if I don't want to anymore?
[Chorus]
There are no hymns today
There are no hymns today
You have to help yourself
If you care
There are no hymns today
There are no hymns today
Bad people have no music
Bad times don't need a beat
[Verse 2]
A few blows for art
A few stabs in the membrane
The violinists sneak off the ship
Everything is silent where there were voices
No notes, no signal
Out of time and wrong
Bad people have no music
Bad times don't need a beat
[Chorus]
There is no hymns today
There are no hymns today
You have to help yourself
If you care
There are no hymns today
There are no hymns today< br/>Bad people have no music
Bad times don't need a beat
