Lyrics What Is Past Is Prologue - Napalm Death

Recruited under implicit pacts
Immoral instigators try to cover their tracks
But convergence of atrocities are thinly disguised
And herein hides their fucking lies
Herein hides their fucking lies
Industrialization - does it lead to Liberation?
Degenerate formulas built on sexist assumption
What is past, what is past is prologue
Parental vulnerability and social stigma
Financially coerced through emotional vicissitudes
Slotted into areas that demand the least
Gendered sectors prepared for the least
Gendered sectors prepared for the least
Create the infrastructure to bolster nervous regimes
Against a background of agricultural politics
What is past, what is past is prologue
Built on sexist assumption...
Sexist assumption...
What, what is past is prologue
What, what is past is prologue
What, what is past is prologue
What...
Recruited under implicit pacts
Immoral instigators try to cover their tracks
But convergence of atrocities are thinly disguised
And herein hides their fucking lies
Parental vulnerability and social stigma
Financially coerced through emotional vicissitudes
Slotted into areas that demand the least
Gendered sectors prepared for the least
Industrialization - does it lead to Liberation?
Degenerate formulas built on sexist assumption
What is past, what is past is prologue
