Today I Started Slogging Again ’85

Are you ready on the bass?
Organ?
Are you ready on guitar?
Shutup, shutup guitar!
Ow!

I'm gonna be short, tell you a story
About vice, lice and depravity
About the M.A.R.Q.U.I.S. D.E. S.A.D.E
But first I'm gonna tell you what I started doing again today
You know what i started doing again today?
"What?" Lemme tell you...

Today I started slogging again
Today I started slogging again
Today I started slogging again
But, er...
Today I started slogging again

Everyone look
Get down
Everyone now
Give it again
Beat me to the bricks

Give me guitar
Play a song
Hallelujah

According to me, Mister Marquis, you mix up passion and cruelty
'Cos passion extinguishes sympathy and makes you cold and hard like me
Stronger and stronger charms are needed to satisfy the passion
And pain awakens nerves when utilised in this fashion
The pain of others also causes extraordinary excitation
And this cruelty shows your energy (intelligence) not your degeneration
Horrible spectacle, execution, slaughter, disease and death...
You ain't tasted nothing 'til you got Foetus on your breath

Today I started slogging again
Today I started slogging again
Today I started slogging again
Today I started slogging again

Give me a guitar solo

Hit me
Do it to the girls
Hit me
I like that

I like it

Castration, masturbation, flagellation, come on, use your imagination
You may need lubrication for the appropriate preparation
So tighten up the thumbscrews, put on this evening gown (and don't you make a sound)
Cuz no one leaves 'til their extremities are dragging on the ground

Today I started slogging again
Today I started slogging again
Today I started slogging again
Today I started slogging again

Get down

Say it again
Today I started slogging again
Today I started slogging again
Tell me, baby
Today I started slogging again
