The World at War (1973–74) is a 26-episode British television documentary series chronicling the events of the Second World War. At the time of its completion in 1973 it was the most expensive series ever made, costing £900,000. It was produced by Jeremy Isaacs, narrated by Laurence Olivier and has a score composed by Carl Davis. A book, The World at War, was written by Mark Arnold-Forster to accompany it.
Since production was completed, The World at War has attracted huge acclaim and is now regarded as a landmark in British television history. Following the time of its completion, and as the Second World War remained fresh in many people's minds, the producer Jeremy Isaacs was considered ahead of his time in resurrecting studies of military history. The series focused on, among other things, portrayal of the devastating human experiences of the conflict; how life and death throughout the war years affected soldiers, sailors and airmen, civilians, the tragic victims of tyranny and, above all, concentration camp inmates.
World at War can refer to:
At War is an EP by the Brazilian death metal band Rebaelliun. It was released in 1999 by Hammerheart Records.
World is a common name for the whole of human civilization, specifically human experience, history, or the human condition in general, worldwide, i.e. anywhere on Earth.
In a philosophical context it may refer to: (1) the whole of the physical Universe, or (2) an ontological world (see world disclosure). In a theological context, world usually refers to the material or the profane sphere, as opposed to the celestial, spiritual, transcendent or sacred. The "end of the world" refers to scenarios of the final end of human history, often in religious contexts.
World history is commonly understood as spanning the major geopolitical developments of about five millennia, from the first civilizations to the present.
World population is the sum of all human populations at any time; similarly, world economy is the sum of the economies of all societies (all countries), especially in the context of globalization. Terms like world championship, gross world product, world flags etc. also imply the sum or combination of all current-day sovereign states.

War!
Shoot down enemy
Endless war
We are conqueror
Marching for life
Marching for rising sun
At war!
We shall reign in blood
Terror!
Knocked down and pray
Bomb and till submission
The future will be cold
Marching for life
Marching for rising sun
At war!
We shall reign in blood
The blood that I so crave
Addicted to your blood
Attack for the last time
Get out of my way
Marching for life
Marching for rising sun
At war!
The roar of guns echoing all over this bloodstained valley
...screams rising in the heat
Warriors on mighty black horses comes riding through the battlefield
Spitfire opened, no time to think, the troopers friend is now his shield
It is war
The war is here and you are in it
It is war
You may lose or you may win
The eyes are glowing on the enemy, ready kill burn and destroy
Go forward all their deeds done with joy
Warriors on mighty black horses comes riding through the battlefield
With our force we resist
Apocalypse is our only revenge
Nazarene feel my hate
Feel my sword on your face
An endless war we're going on
With the black warriors, Hell's force
Again we'll crucify you false lord
With blood in my hands I declare war
For centuries we've lived and died
In this decaying age
Now the giants of steel will arise
With the beasts of this land at our side
Chaos, our desire was fulfilled
Blood, all the blood spills
In this war there's only glory or death
Victory is the only way at war!
War! War! At war!
I hear the cry of mankind
I see men in a lion's den
I feel all hate in my hands, in my arms
I give all this hell to the bastards
I'm in this war for victory - your fall!

Let the killer go, don't let your mother know,
Don't go out tonight, don't even try to fight,
'Cos I can see, I've got the thing you need,
And I'm here to stay, it's gonna be that way,
Don't try to run, don't try to scream,
Believe me, The Hammer's gonna smash your dream
I'm in your life, just might be in your wife,
Could be behind your back, I might be on your track,
And it might be true, I might be onto you,
I'll scare you half to death, I'll take away your breath,
Don't try to see, don't try to hide,
Believe me, The Hammer's gonna make you die
There ain't no way, you'll see another day,
I'm shooting out your lights, bring you eternal night,
And your eternal tricks, begin to make me sick,
The only thing I know, is that you've gotta go,
Don't try to hide, don't look around,
Believe me, The Hammer's gonna bring you down,
200 years is all it took
The rest of the world must take a look
And notice just how far we've come
Once a British colony
We took the freedom that wee need
And put oppression on the run!
Third world countries everywhere
Dictatorships that just don't care
Human rights no issues there!
Civil war a normal day
The people know no other way
They look to us in green dismay!
Understanding endless wars
The answers we're all searching for
when those who fight don't know much more
If they can't stop their ceaseless fights
Then let's step in and set them right
Reality is peace through might!
One thousand years of holy war
To die in battles' whats they're for
Their offspring raised to fight some more
Still killing people of their blood
All in search of Allah's love
The only thing they know to do!
They love to hate the communist
Then sight their guns on Zionists
Another hostage on their list!
Ransom for their evil deeds
A gun or two is all they need
We won't again fulfil their greed!
America's the target now
From people who bow down to cows
Whole over here a stake's good chow!
To tighten up influence grip
Would show them all we're sick of it
Force the end to killing fits!
[3x]
I'm not gonna take it any more!
No more!
Its not that bomb across your fence
Your enemy is ignorance
Ordered to Kill
Fire at will, out for the kill, looking for you
Your blood must spill tonight
Bursting your veins, watch as you faint
You feel the pain
You've lost the will to fight
Nothing to do, except look for you
You can't get away
For if you do you'll be
Stopped in your tracks, given the axe
We can't restrain
We are the troops insane
Ordered to kill!
Conventional force, changing the course
Feel no remorse
Carnage and suffering's
Part of the game, we're here to maim
Our mission is plain
Destroy the enemy
Take all their land, stop their last stand
Leave them our brand
Forced to remember
The day we attacked, brought forth our wrath
Death's aftermath
We have been trained and we're
Ordered to kill!
Terror excites, shoot all on sight
Don't wait for their whites
No need just aim and fire
Laser device, just makes it nice, point it and pull
Turn screams to silent lulls
Dropping like flies, deaf to their cries
A damning demise
A fate we must ensue
Freedom's not done, until we have won
So let's make it fun
We have been trained and we're
Ordered to kill!
You feel the bullet enter your throat
Drop to the ground on your blood start to choke
Gasping for air feel the pain from within
Sense what real fear is life slowly dims
Eyes turning skyward heaped on the ground
Life's early scenes start to go down
Tension it builds up as death you await
Misery's end in this you elate
Delirium trauma now it sets in
Now knowing your fate your throughts make you grin
Blood loss accumulates drains from your head
Jawhol und zeig heil mein commandant
Use them for science or what you want
Cut them and slice them for Hitler's cause
Just try to find all their racial flaws
Experimental brain surgery
Just for reactions you can study
Pain is the question, what can they stand
Gripping to life by a tiny strand
Ilsa! She-wolf of the S.S.
Ilsa! For torture she's the nazi's best
Ilsa! She-wolf of the S.S.
Ilsa! She'll put your body to the test
Deciding their fate with an injection
Hoping for spread of the infection
Answering questions about disease
At the same time keep them on their knees
Ilsa! She-wolf of the S.S.
Ilsa! For torture she's the nazi's best
Ilsa! She-wolf of the S.S.
Ilsa! She'll put your body to the test
She'll grind you down bring you round
Then rip you up to feed the ground
Sex with her don't cum first
She'll castrate you her nazi curse
Stalag of terror it is your pride
Loving the thought of jews locked inside
Proving the strength of your "master race"
When in the end you're a big disgrace
Ilsa! She-wolf of the S.S.
Ilsa! For torture she's the nazi's best
Ilsa! She-wolf of the S.S.
The people have chosen decisions were made
We know what must be done to rid the scourge!
Extract all insurgents and factions alike
The search and seizure of them all has begun!
Slowing the process of eradication
You aid and abet the scum that we seek!
Rip at the fabric of our very purpose
Take in the wretched filth "you're so weak!"
Your cause you feel noble to save human life
While they plunder and upset the nation!
An end to this struggle is what we all want
But by your actions this conflict will go on!
Accomplice!
Conspiracy!
Subverse!
Fantasy!
[Chorus:]
You're the gutless sympathizer!
Stand on both sides even wiser!
Treasonist ways a health risk!
Continued support "you'll get fixed!"
You're the gutless sympathizer!
Undermine our one desire!
Deal with you "fine tuned force"!
Told you once there's no recourse!
Many accept the things they must do
They know we can't stand undivided!
Internal struggle something to avoid
The plan to rescue our world means us all!
No one here thinks in the ways that you do
Your opinion will be over-rided!
The overall outcome that you will insist
Is just setting us for a fall!
Wreckless!
Undertaking!
Foolish!
Adversity!
[Chorus]
Time to react is when forces show force
No sense in letting them dig in!
Insist that they think twice before we move in!
Show them that aggressors will not win
Protest for peace love my enemy too!
All you really do is cloud the issues!
You're making a path for them to walk right in!
By acting as if they want peace!
They'll find you and use you to get what they want
At the end you'll get stabbed in the back
Risk not your freedom with enemies!
Fight them until they know they've lost!
Acting!
Treacherously!
Cause not!
Misery!
I know you want to lie
I can see it in your eyes!
I see it in your eyes
Still you know you can't hide!
[Refrain:]
Fellon's guilt [2x]
[Repeat *]
Oh! the guilt is killing you!
It shines right through!
Feel as though you've died!
Eating from inside!
Waiting to be hanged!
Caught once again!
Written on your face!
Self-made disgrace!
Waiting it to end!
Transgression's blend!
Must live with yourself
Not worth the wealth!
Your nerves have had enough
Acting's not so though!
Paranoia's time
Pay for your crime!
When priests become
Politicians!
They'll have freedom
On the run!
Land of free,
The home of the brave!
They'll force all men
To be God's slaves!
Church and state
Must separate!
It's time we now
Retaliate!
Church and state
Can't integrate!
Do it now
Before it's late!
The righteous folk
Turn their prayers to stocks!
God's destiny
Is forced on thee!
Their blind crusade
Turns to charade!
At powers gain
All sinners slain!
Tyrants, take heed, come the morning we'll fight
Your downfalls our call here to stop you
It's our plight
Suppressed hate excelled rate growing stronger
Burst time
Forced out no doubt by the oppressed - you slime
Until we bring their dawn of death
These things you can look for
You know damn well they'll be with you
Oppression hate and war
Taking faking lie and murder - self gain
Fight wars to pay whores just to please you
False reign
Closed eyes you'll die don't sleep at night
We're there
To meet your maker it's our pleasure - we kill
Until we bring their dawn of death
These things you can look for
You know damn well they'll be with you
Oppression hate and war
Nightly vigils watching your moves scheming
The outcome will stun ending your life demeaning
We've massed we'll last here to conquer your past
Your rules for fools understand this - we rule!
Until we bring their dawn of death
These things you can look for
You know damn well they'll be with you
[Intro]
Here he comes again with hateful lust to take you down
No sympathy angry disdain for your lower form
Disgusted with your sexy touches into seek revenge
No one knows why he goes out on this demeaning binge!
Crush your life! [4x]
Deceiving them into his tangled wretched web
That he's been weaving silently just for his prey!
this one's no different in his eyes they're all the same
He thinks his next victim is led astray!
When they're scared to death; pleading help he takes a breath
And feels fulfilled getting what he's looking for!
His climax comes knowing he's proved to her forever
That he's the last man that she will ignore!
You'll never change his ways
Your belittlement will save his day!
No matter what is done his kind exists!
Don't underestimate his cruelty!
No morals in this form of sanity!
He lives to feed on fright!
A cloud of hate follows him where ever he may go!
Many have fallen fate to him more than you'll ever know!
His success in mental torture makes him grow stronger!
Walking down to town; menaced mind his list gets longer!
[Chorus]
He's here to stay make no delay fight back defend
Yourself if you think you're ready to take him on!
His seductive bout is hard to filter out
It's easy to believe him he's a practiced con
He wants to traumatize first he'll mesmerize
Next force you to concede then fall to evil will!
Terror trained no mercy brained he'd too far gone
We must way till nightfall for the time when its dark and cold!
Behind enemy lines in the place where we know they control!
Make way to the checkpoint just a few clicks from here on the hill!
Our reinforcements help us to move in for the kill!
Orders are extractions silently remove them quick and clean!
Hostage to the violent, greedy unrelenting new regime!
Closer to their hideout moving in we must be prepared!
Taking many chances, losing nothing by just having dared!
[Chorus:]
Enter into covert sins with world's alive tonight!
Stalking thrill of mental skill's a game!
Extracting information using anyway we can!
Living edge of death's own dredge the world has gone insane!
Forcing economies in their worst of times to collapse!
Protect their own system to suffer not again from relapse!
Causing bigus scandals from all around the world to appear!
People mistrust leaders, knowing and aware that lies are near!
Supply the weapons let them believe that we're for their cause!
Let them kill each other laughing all the while hear loud applause!
Doing their dirty work conscious won't affect they feel no pain!
Harvest someone else's brutally fought and won struggle gain!
[Chorus]
No mas comunista in or near our homeland porfavor!
To stop the encroachment future domination they live for!
Lesser of two evils knowing that's the only one who gets support!
Make sure Moscow's allies in the end go home and loose the fort!
Mistrust hatred and fear start to cause the problems from both sides!
Causing the governments diplomatic walls then collide!
Talk disarmament many reasons put it on standby!
Conscientous objector the lowest of their kind!
Watching while their brothers die sworn to selfish mind!
Sell mothers to horrid fate to save your world from war!
Turning cheek, spineless weak, peace you must implore!
(chorus):
To underminde the very things that our forefathers died for!
Is slow decay of freedom's way unlock that tyrant's door!
Meet force with force have no remorse if time come you must fight!
Defend defend until the end your freedom wrong or right!
Bring yourself to life; an ugly though to bare!
Us or them then where's the sin; conscience cleared of care!
Able bodied sound of mind, in war it's fair they say!
Justify your train of thought; truly there's no way!
(Chorus)
Silent protester won't stop fires burning down your world!
In the end you've proved your point as slavery unfuried!
Priorities yours to make, defense dignity!
Those you kill would do the same! preserve your liberty!
Ride on in on the wings of hate
Take revenge for the things they've done
Pull the switch to fully-auto
Lead diet show them it's fun
Take them down just as they have done
Destroy their life crush all their bones
Fiddled bodies lying on the ground
All that's left is flesh by the pound
Take the poser by the fucking head
Bring him down six-feet underground
Now it's time false metal genocide
Time to rid the earth of their strench
Roll them up to the funeral pyre
Burn the bastard while he's still alive
No regrets while he writhes in pain
Show them all they can't hide
Since time began
Man's killed the best he can
Committing evil sin
He does it with a grin
Till he invented guns
He made it much more fun
We'll shoot them in the head
Screaming "Bastard, eat lead"
Speed that kills sonic overkill
Reaction time your life's on the line
The faster finger avoids the stinger
You'll know it is your time
Another show feeling low-down
Conquer falseness take more ground
Machine of force mean to all that live
A thousand bodies all in a mound
Power amps pushed to destroy
It's a fate you just can't avoid
Metal death it is what they fear
Their destruction death to poser queers
Total wipe out we will settle for
Start killing till there are no more
Get your clips let's go have some fun
Nothing better poser on the run
Since time began
Man's killed the best he can
Committing evil sin
He does it with a grin
Till he invented guns
He made it much more fun
We'll shoot them in the head
Screaming "Bastard, eat lead"
Since time began
Man's killed the best he can
Committing evil sin
He does it with a grin
Till he invented guns
He made it much more fun
We'll shoot them in the head
Screaming "Fuck you, eat lead"
Attack at dawn release the deadly spawn
Burning leads from the demon shawn
None survive hiding as they may
They think of hope we give them rude dismay
Heads thrash eyes are filled with rage
The sound of carnage scorching from the stage
Torrid stench rotted corpses lay
Our wrath is quick now it's time to pray
Blatant lies worthless alibis
We know your crime verdict is to die
Metal sentence of the rawest form
To be left dying body ripped and torn
Faking metal they will do no more
Total sellouts like the rankest whore
In the end they will see we're right
So you say you'll save it for Mr.Right
We'll he's been watching, watching you at night!
You're so pure you can't be touched
He sees you he wants you; sex and such
You feel him there he's everywhere
He wants to take you down
You see his face, such a disgrace
It's the start of the rapechase
Virginity is of the past
You try to save it but it won't last
You lustful evil in your dreams
You know he's coming you hear his screams
You feel him there he's everywhere
He's got you he's taking you down
You see his face, such a disgrace
It's the start of the rapechase
Fuck that bitch!
You feel him there he's everywhere
He's got you he's taken you down
You've seen his face, you've been disgraced
It's the end of the rapechase
Remember what mother always told you
Thinkin' hopin' prayin' wishin' tryin' [4x]
Thinkin'
Thinkin' hopin' prayin' wishin' tryin' [4x]
You think you got a hope in hell
You don't you fiend you just go home
We must way till nightfall for the time when its dark and cold!
Behind enemy lines in the place where we know they control!
Make way to the checkpoint just a few clicks from here on the hill!
Our reinforcements help us to move in for the kill!
Orders are extractions silently remove them quick and clean!

Talk disarmament many reasons put it on standby!
It will never happen reasons all around that you know why!
Trained in terror hate and fear
To kill the women and children near USA or Israel
You'd like to send them all to hell
Throw grenades down airport halls
Bullets flying wall to wall
Innocent deaths we won't stand
One day you'll face our reprimand
Fuckadafi...
Bring him to his knees
Fuckadafi...
Threaten us with squads of death
I'm hear to say don't waste your breath
Bring 'em on we won't run
Every house here's got a gun
We'll meet your threats face to face
Anytime Mohamar, any place
We'll end your reign we'll find a way
Until that time I want to say...
Fuckadafi...
Bring him to his knees
Fuckadafi...
Nostradamus spoke of you
The Antichrist with turbin blue
This won't come you just see
We master our own destiny
You said you'll launch the first attack
Just don't forget we fight back
We'll change events this prophet said
We'll prove it when we have your head
You think the Ruskies are your friends
They'll stick with you until the end
If you believe that your a fool
Your country is just the commies tool parading arms
everywhere
Just like the ones that fill red square
The economy's not your concern
You'd rather watch the arms race burn
Fuckadafi...
Bring him to his knees
Fuckadafi...
I can see the desert I can see the stars.
But was it left for you or was it something that you had ignored, ignored?
Like your life.
And I can't see the future I can't see that far.
Was it left for you or was it saved?
Long ago.
And it's like we're at war.
And it's like we're at war with ourselves.
You can hold me down, you can make me sleep.
But you will never control what's inside of my head.
And it's in my head.
I can see the beach I can see the waves.
Was it left for you or was it saved, just for me?
And I can't see the future, I can't see that far.
Was it left for you, or did it leave a scar?
And it's like they've found an ocean,
It's like they've found an ocean in my head.
And it's like they've found an ocean,
It's like they've found it in my head.
And it's like we're at war.
And it's like we're at war with ourselves.
We are here and we are bred, to justify our lives.
We make enemies with our friends, to justify our lives.
And we run races that we can't win, to justify our lives.
We will pay for it in the end, to justify our lives.
And it's like we're at war.
And it's like we're at war with ourselves.
It's like, it's like we're at war.
Dance now whatever you will be
But he missed the fucking penalty
So we smashed up the town
Wherever we may be
Coz he missed the fucking penalty
Wanker !
Dance now whatever you will be
But he missed the fucking penalty
So we smashed up the town
Wherever we may be
Coz he missed the fucking penalty
You fucking animals!
What else you're gonna do on a saturday?
Sitting in your fucking armchair?
Wanking off to pop idols?
Fuck that for a laugh!
I know what i rather do.
Tottenham away!
Love it!
We're at war, the papers say
And we will win, I read today
We are strong
It wasn't us
We are right
Who started this?
Sons of man
We stand like gods
We give our life
To feed your cause
We run to ground
Our heathen foe
Leave your work, I just left school
Leave your home, I am no fool
Take up arms, It left me strong
Sound alarms, School Bells Ring
Sons of man
We stand like gods
We give our life
To feed your cause
We run to ground
Another lie
Time to die
Another day
Blown away
Another scam
Show you who I am
Another day
Blown away
Hand of justice
Soon will be falling
Vengeance thine
Lord of steel
Annihilation
They will never win this fight
We have the power and the might
We have the sacred right
Feel the power here tonight
Hand of justice
Soon will be falling
Vengeance thine
Lord of steel
Annihilation
Live the life we truly feel
Fighting for the lord of steel
Heavy metal is my life
Heavy metal will never die
Hand of justice
Soon will be falling
Vengeance thine
Lord of steel
