Lyrics:

(DickSimmondsBoultUsher)I watch the TV every night,I stay awake by satellite,I hope and pray the nightmares,Stay away today.An oily shroud on a coral reef,A black cloud's hanging over me.When I hit on the remote,The programmes stay the same.Credo, credo, credo, credo.An assegai slick with sweat and blood,A shotgun barks at a rabid dog,A shallow grave hugs a highway,Beneath a bleaching sun.chorus:Credo, credo, credo, credo,It don't mean nothin'; it don't mean nothin'It don't mean nothin'; it don't mean nothin' to me.When cancer sucks a young girl's breast.When a company chains a young man's soulWhen the coal dust stoleMy grandad's breath away.(chorus)A tattered tramp tacks a windy wynd,To close a crowded circle a brazier's light,A man becomes a mountain, in the falling snow.A mother screams and a baby cries.The memory gone before the blood has dried.A needle pricks the conscience,To help it fade away.(chorus)The more you scream, the less you hear,Or that's how it used to be.But I just can't tell the differenceAnymore these days.The open lips of an alter[1] boy,A planet spins in a silent void,The options are ever fewerOn the ground these days(chorus)[1] sic. Is this supposed to be altar? This is how it appears on the lyric sheet.
