Lyrics馃専馃専馃専馃専
In the heat of the night
In the heat of the day
When I close my eyes
When I look your way
When I meet the fear
that lies inside
When I hear you say
In the heat of the moment
Say, say, say

Some day, some day,
some day, Dominion
Come a time
Some day, some day,
some day, Dominion
Some say prayers
Some say prayers
I say mine
In the light of the fact
On the lone and level
Sand stretch far away
In the heat of the action
In the settled dust
Hold hold and say
In the meeting of mined
Down in the streets of shame
In the betting of names
on gold to rust
In the land of the blind
Be... King, king, king, king

Some day, some day,
some day, Dominion
Come a time
Some day, some day,
some day, Dominion
Some say prayers
Some say prayers
I say mine

Some day, some day,
some day, Dominion
Some say prayers
Some say prayers
I say mine

In the heat of the night
in the heat of the day
When I close my eyes
When I look your way
When I meet the fear
that lies inside
When I hear you say
In the heat of the moment
Say, say, say

Some day, some day,
some day, Dominion
Some say prayers
Some say prayers
I say mine
I say mine
I say mine

Background and composition

Eldritch has revealed the song disguises an anti-American diatribe flavoured by the Chernobyl nuclear disaster.At the time of release he also claimed that the second part of the song "Mother Russia" was a call for the West to give up Berlin to the Soviets, "because in reality they already control the city. It's only stupid to pretend otherwise".

Recording of the song took place in 1987 at Power Station Studios in Manhattan, New York. Like its Steinman-produced twin "This Corrosion", "Dominion/Mother Russia" features vocals from the New York Choral Society.The full version comprises two main parts, "Dominion" and "Mother Russia".
