about

BY ANY OTHER NAME IS ... SEX ... is about war, civilization, and sex.

lyrics

I read the news today
Another wall came down today
Not that one in Germany
But basically the same
And England lost its booty
To a frail Mahatma Gandi
The fight said Wilheim Reich
Was over candy... oh candy
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Sweet conqueror of hearts
You always shake the world
You are a tart
And you know it smarts
And men will go to war
Don't even know who's in the war
That glory in their heart is really for
Candy...

By any other name is
By any other name is
By any other name is
By any other name is ....sex

Markets racing to the sky
Come crashing down on breathless guys
The stars still spinning round their thighs
And wonks erect bureaucracies
In the burqa of their faded jeans
Sticking to nocturnal dreams of Candy... oh candy
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Sweet conqueror of hearts
You always shake the world
You are a tart
And you know it smarts
And men will go to war
Don't even know who's in the war
That glory in their heart is really for
Candy...

By any other name is
By any other name is
By any other name is
By any other name is ....sex

History is pillars up
And falling down
And up again
Round and round the world spins
Whatever comes
The fights rage on and on and on
From Washington to Babylon
Warriors right or wrong
Love candy... oh candy
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Sweet conqueror of hearts
You always shake the world
You are a tart
And you know it smarts
And men will go to war
Don't even know who's in the war
That glory in their heart is really for
Candy...

By any other name is
By any other name is
By any other name is ....
