War
Lyrics
Marchers gathering today To protest against the war Is it rhetoric Or is it worth all my respect? Is it simply self defence? Or should I stay here on the fence Is this shedding blood Really for the common good? Now the dogs of war Give an ominous, an ominous roar Let's even the score See evil hit the floor Time to crush you down Grind you into dust Is what I am doing just? Or is it power that I lust? Viscous acts that cut so deep Innocent perish while they sleep Walking every path But all talks won't end the wrath This crusade just cannot fail I have to drive the final nail Buried in the dirt Cannot cause a greater hurt Now the dogs of war Give an ominous, an ominous roar Let's even the score See evil hit the floor Time to crush you down Grind you into dust Is what I am doing just? Or is it power that I lust? Do you see that (Adolf Hitler) Hitler's (Joseph Stalin) stalling With sketchy ideology (Idi Amin)? He's diving (Ivan the Terrible) in But all I see is the kettle calling the pot (Pol Pot) black Did you see Vlad (Vlad the Impaler) start mauling (Mao Tse Tung)? How can (Kenghis Khan) he hunt (Attila the Hun) with no impunity You know co-meanies (Khomeini) shares the blame If you don't hear or hit or (Emperor Hirohito) act It's easy to choose When evil is clear It's hindsight that sorts the truth from fear Who is actually right Not so black and white Are you vigilant Or getting militant Now the dogs of war Give an ominous, an ominous roar Let's even the score See evil hit the floor Time to crush you down Grind you into dust Is what I am doing just? Or is it power that I (lust)? Now the dogs of war Give an ominous, an ominous roar Let's even the score See evil hit the floor Time to crush you down Grind you into dust Is what I am doing just? Or is it power that I lust
