[Verse 1]
Now Junior is a-sniffin' his glue
And brother and sister's on weed
A-mama takes pills and daddy gets drunk
And the dog and the cat's startin' to sneeze
Now, what do you think about that, boy?
It's goin' to hell on a sled
Oh, it's definitely goin' to hell on a sled
[Chorus]
Yeah, you know it well it's a-goin' to hell
It's a-goin' to hell on a sled
[Verse 2]
Now we're fightin' in a limited war
So limited fightin' can cease
We limit our kills to limited hills
And hope we win some of that limited peace
Now, what do you think about that?
It's goin' to hell on a sled
[?] It's goin' to hell on a sled
[Chorus]
Yeah, it's a-goin' to hell, it's a-goin' to hell
It's a-goin' to hell on a sled
[Verse 3]
The landlord raises his rent
While the rats gnaw his tenant's kids
And after fire bombs bricks and helmets and sticks
The rats are still gnawin' on them kids
This is the BBC world service, it's goin' to hell on a sled
[Chorus]
They're killin' police for freedom and peace
It's a-goin' to hell on a sled
[Verse 4]
Now kids can't pray in school
God is dead you fool
Church people smile as they frug in the aisle
And the preacher says, "Man, ain't that cool?"
It's goin' to hell on a sled, boy, I tell you this
It's goin' to hell on ze sled
[Chorus]
You know it well it's a-goin' to hell
It's a-goin' to hell on a sled
[Outro]
It's going to hell on a sled, I
I called some boys over today about [?]
They think it's going to hell on a sled
Yes, well, I was speaking to some of my associates and they were of the same opinion, you know, really were
