Tankard - Two-Faced

8. Two-Faced

My next-door neighbor
An unassuming man
White picket fences
Respected citizen
In the darkness of hidden passion
In the place that's kept out of view
Raping his teenage daughter softly whispering "I love you"

Look inside: you may find your own de Sade
Thinks you hide, here behind the clean facade

Two-faced creatures - prisoners of the twilight zone
Changing features - contradiction to the bone
Never see eye to eye
Double talk, too many lies
Hypocrites all the way
Doing as we do not see

A loving father
In camouflage concealed
Slaughtering babies
Because their enemies
Butchering in the name of justice
Genocide in the name of peace
"Civilizations" built on blood and bones, when will it cease?

Look inside: do you now your borderline?
Does your self drive a shiver up your spine?

Two-faced creatures - prisoners of the twilight zone
Changing features - contradiction to the bone
Never see eye to eye
Double talk, too many lies
Hypocrites all the way
Doing as we do not see

Our politicians
Leader in wisdom donned
Preach to the masses
And every time they're conned
Slave to greed and servants to power
But the words are honest and pure
The kings of two-facedness reign undisputed and secure

Look inside: would you do it just the same?
What's to hide, everybody plays the game

Two-faced creatures - prisoners of the twilight zone
Changing features - contradiction to the bone
Never see eye to eye
Double talk, too many lies
Hypocrites all the way
Doing as we do not see

Now this is what I call intelligent, melodic, and dare I say..... BEAUTIFUL... thrash. Tankard's got brains, brawn, and humor that has really lasted a long time. Best thrash band ever! Fuck I love these riffs!!! Production on "Two Faced" isn't quite as good or tight as "Stone Cold Sober", though.

Brilliant. This is Tankard at their lyrical best. "Two Faced" is a great album, though it's musical production sounds a little muddy compared to Tankard's other albums. Pure poetry nonetheless. This is one of Tankard's best songs, and a very important one at that.
