Before the Madness Comes Video (MV)

I met a man who knows a way out of town, but we'll have to wait until your mother's fever's gone down
So keep your papers in the bedroom drawer, it seems tonight they might be going door to door
The neighbours' daughter with the skinny legs was captured trying to climb over the barbed wire fence
Be careful not to say her name too loud, I think I hear a chopper flying over the house

Hide your rations underneath the floor, make sure you're back inside before the darkness falls
Put a lock on your bedroom door, they've found another sucker for the uniform

Before the madness comes, we'd better start thinking about which side we're on
We'd best start choosing which side we're on

'Cos right now, I am told, we're at war

The power's out again and so is the fire
Don't go out for wood - the trucks are right outside
One - two - three pairs of boots
Just hide behind the cabinet and try not to move

Another sucker for the uniform
