    Story Behind the Song
    1st track on the album. In 1969 Kissinger and Nixon decided to bomb Cambodia, Vietnam's "Sideshow", in the false belief that Vietnamese troops were using the country for bases. The resulting devastation created the political landscape that allowed Pol Pot's brutal regime to take power. Between 1975 and 1979 an estimated 3 million people died at the hands of the Khmer Rouge as Cambodian history started at year zero and the only authority was Angka.

    Lyrics
    angka

    angka, the organisation.

    crawl out of hospital on bloody stumps
    what was once human into body dumps.
    s21, number dead 16,000
    drowned in a barrel or stung to death
    bludgeoned to save bullets

    year zero
    ghost towns became a ghost country
    to the fields or death
    no past, no ties, no family

    angka, massacre the intelligentsia

    gang of six, pol pot clique
    mighty shall inherit, forget the meek.
    "no one smiles here"
    youth corrupted year by year
    angka, maoist heaven
    15 year olds with ak47s

    "roll up, roll up! welcome to the 'sideshow'!
    pick your bomb from the menu"
    what was started in '69 isn't over and will last all time
