bricks and mortar

no one understands

the way you found your god

there's a bullet in your hand. i give a dog a bone

he'll eat for the day

but teach him how to kill then. i am the coast defence

i am the city wall

stealing pounds and pence from you all. still no one understands

the way you found your god

there's a bullet in your hand. pour salt water on the wound

pour salt water on the wound

this home is more than bricks and mortar

pour salt water on the wound. ahhhhhhhhhh!

when the boy's older

he'll have the arms of a soldier

those arms will never hold her again. it's just like i told you

when the boy's older

he's gonna be a soldier for them. pour salt water on the wound

pour salt water on the wound

this home is more than bricks and mortar

pour salt water on the wound. i hope life is good for you

i hope life is good for you

i hope life is good for you

i hope life is good for you. ohhhhhhhhhh!
