military madness

in an upstairs room in blackpool

by the side of a northern sea

the army had my father

and my mother was having me

military madness

was killing my country

solitary sadness

comes over me

and after the school was over

and i moved to the other side

i found another country

but i never lost my pride

military madness

was killing the country

solitary sadness

creeps over me

and after the wars are over

and the body count is finally filed

i hope that man discovers

what's driving the people wild

military madness

is killing your country

so much sadness

between you and me

war

war

war

war

war

war
