Bad Wolves Lyrics. Another head hangs lowly Child is slowly taken And the violence causes silence Who are we mistaken? But you see, it's not me It's not my family In your head, in your head, they are fighting With their tanks, and their bombs And their bombs, and their drones In your head, in your head, they are crying What's in your head, in your head? Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie What's in your head, in your head? Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie-ie, oh Another mother's breaking Heart is taking over When the violence causes silence We must be mistaken It's the same old theme In two thousand eighteen In your head, in your head, they're still fighting With their tanks, and their bombs And their guns, and their drones In your head, in your head, they are dying What's in your head, in your head? Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie-ie, oh It's the same old theme In two thousand eighteen In your head, in your head, they are dying What's in your head, in your head? Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie-ie, oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh yeah.
