It's been ages since i made a tune this raw

But it's time to draw a line in the music hall

I'm fed up of what's not got in the news reports

Daily slayings, flayings, what do they do this for?

Planes drop bombs on those with no food or water

Ha, even sun tzu never knew such war

They changed the rules so this behaviour's duly lawful

Don't just sit through shoah, night and fog and schindler's list

Things are happening this minute while you reminisce

Ring your politicians, make them say they'll follow wishes

And if they break their promise take away their office quick, they're
