You've got the mouth of a she wolf[00:00:21]
Inside the mask of an innocent lamb[00:00:23]
You say your heart is all compassion[00:00:26]
But there's just a flat line on your cardiogram[00:00:28]
Yet you always made a profit baby[00:00:31]
If it was a famine or a feast[00:00:34]
Yes I'm the soul of indiscretion[00:00:41]
I was cursed with x-ray vision[00:00:43]
I could see right through all the lies you told[00:00:45]
When you smiled for the television[00:00:48]
And you can see the coming battle[00:00:51]
You pray the drums will never cease[00:00:54]
And you may win this war that's coming[00:01:01]
But would you tolerate the peace [00:01:05]
Investing in munitions[00:01:21]
And those little cotton flags[00:01:23]
Invest in wooden caskets[00:01:26]
In guns and body bags guns and body bags[00:01:28]
Your daddy was a businessman[00:01:41]
And it always made good sense[00:01:43]
You know the war can make you rich my friend[00:01:46]
In dollars pounds and cents[00:01:49]
In the temple that was Mammon's[00:01:52]
You were ordained the parish priest[00:01:55]
Yes you may win this coming battle[00:02:01]
But would you tolerate the peace [00:02:05]
Invest in deadly weapons[00:02:31]
And those little cotton flags[00:02:33]
Invest in wooden caskets[00:02:36]
In guns and body bags[00:02:38]
You've invested in oppression[00:02:41]
Investing in corruption[00:02:43]
Invest in every tyranny[00:02:45]
And the whole world's destruction[00:02:47]
I imagine there's a future[00:03:01]
When all the earthly wars are over[00:03:03]
You may find yourself just standing there[00:03:06]
On the white cliffs of Dover[00:03:08]
You may ask what does it profit a man[00:03:11]
To gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his soul[00:03:13]
Is that your body you see on the rocks below[00:03:16]
As the tide begins to roll [00:03:19]
And you invested in this prison[00:03:21]
From which you never got released[00:03:25]
You may have won this war we're fighting[00:03:31]
But would you tolerate the peace [00:03:35]
There's a war on our democracy[00:03:56]
A war on our dissent[00:03:58]
There's a war inside religion[00:04:00]
And what Jesus might have meant[00:04:02]
There's a war on mother nature[00:04:04]
A war upon the seas[00:04:06]
There's a war upon the forests[00:04:08]
On the birds and the bees[00:04:10]
There's a war on education[00:04:12]
A war on information[00:04:14]
A war between the sexes[00:04:15]
And every nation[00:04:17]
A war on our compassion[00:04:18]
A war on understanding[00:04:20]
A war on love and life itself[00:04:22]
It's war that they're demanding[00:04:24]
Make it easy on yourself[00:04:46]
And don't do nothing[00:04:50]
Make it easy on yourself[00:04:55]
And don't do nothing[00:05:00]
Make it easy on yourself[00:05:05]
And don't do nothing[00:05:10]
Make it easy on yourself[00:05:15]
