[Verse 1]
Man watching video
The heart keeps on ticking
He doesn't know why
He's just cattle for slaughter

[Chorus]
The requiem
The requiem
The requiem

[Verse 2]
When the meaningful words
When they cease to function
When there's nothing to say
When will they start plotting against you

[Chorus]
The requiem
The requiem
The requiem

[Verse 3]
Only a hint of religion
I'm sensing spirits of depravity
The sound of breaking glass
This is the reflection

[Chorus]
The requiem
The requiem
The requiem

Foo Fighters are an American rock band formed in 1995 by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl. Originally a solo project by him to overcome the grief of Kurt Cobain’s death, Grohl attracted label interest with his inaugural demo tape.

According to Dave Grohl, the band is named after the UFOs that were reported by Allied aircraft pilots in World War II.

I was reading a lot of books on UFOs. Not only is it a fascinating subject, but there’s a treasure trove of band names in those UFO books! So, since I had recorded the first record by myself, playing all the instruments, but I wanted people to think that it was a group, I figured that FOO FIGHTERS might lead people to believe that it was more than just one guy. Silly, huh?
