Lyrics
War
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
you're given two sets of clues
with the answers all the same
and a two-speed crossword
called 'love in the suds'
your bullet holes are screaming
wearing shoes you should be seen in
with a brave knife and fork
we're all set to go flying
comes trouble - here comes trouble (2x)
wow
your thought for the weeks
in the river, river, river
feels something like a crow
flying round with the planes
and the fish down under
coming up with rust inside
and your summer days were spent
collecting soap opera stories
comes trouble - here comes trouble (2x)
wow
saved by the music makers
speed boat to freedom
with the beautiful people
bullet holes in your head
but you're running out of time
and you're running out of freedom
now the animal crackers
all set to go flying
comes trouble - here comes trouble (2x)
here comes trouble - comes trouble (6x)
here comes trouble
