When new damage comes
It's a faceless poison
A new world order
It's new damage done
The wreck is going down
Get out before you drown
The wreck is going down
Get out before you drown
Get out
When new damage comes
It's a new word for plague
A new world order
A new word for hate
The wreck is going down
Get out before you drown
The wreck is going down
Get out before you drown
Get out, yeah
Before you drown
Get out
Get out
Oh yeah
When new damage comes
It's a new word for plague
A new world order
A new word for hate
The wreck is going down
Get out before you drown
The wreck is going down
Get out before you drown
Get out
Get out
Get out, before you
Drown
Before you drown
Get out
Get out
Get out
Get out, get out
Get out, oh yeah
Get out
Before you drown
Get out
Get out
Before you drown, before you drown
Before, before you drown
It's a faceless poison
A new world order
It's new damage done
The wreck is going down
Get out before you drown
The wreck is going down
Get out before you drown
Get out
When new damage comes
It's a new word for plague
A new world order
A new word for hate
The wreck is going down
Get out before you drown
The wreck is going down
Get out before you drown
Get out, yeah
Before you drown
Get out
Get out
Oh yeah
When new damage comes
It's a new word for plague
A new world order
A new word for hate
The wreck is going down
Get out before you drown
The wreck is going down
Get out before you drown
Get out

Get out, before you
Drown
Before you drown

Album: Badmotorfinger
This political protest tune from Badmotorfinger takes aim at governmental authority. The lyrics reference “a new world order” which was a quote from then US President George H.W. Bush. According to Cornell, the Bush administration was bringing about “a new world for hate” and it’s going to bring about “new damage done”. The lyrics are definitely poignant in today’s political climate.
