While, days are clearer
and fear is swallowed
but in the undergrowth
new fires are burning
Spies shoot presidents
in their lovers' beds
when guns are jammed
in trenches on the border
arm-sellers have got an ace
up their sleeves
in days of curfew
and they're making good business
military bases
in Europe
bombardiers are dreaming
days of glory
but if you search the pale face
of the heroes of war
will find a cry
of a machine gun
oh oh oh
mercenaries
swear allegiance
to the highest bidder
on torture manual
there will be no cancerous bed
for the killed in action
but only napalm tattoos
on chest of veterans
oh oh oh
