Sing a song of violence and listen for the sound

All the little soldiers start to come around

Start it with a rumour, a whisper in an ear

Suspision don't take very long before it turns to fear

??? Said I need a reason, made of up and low ???

??? Feel what they're fighting, just tell them where to go ???

Give the chance of glory, give the chance of fame

Give the boy an enemy, give the dog a name

Keep the factions fighting, start them off the school

Keep the factions fighting so you divide and rule

Football teams are splendid and fashion just a tool

Keep the factions fighting so you divide and rule

Fear can be a bum thing

A silly and a dumb thing

Fear can be the one thing

That keeps us all apart

Frightened of the humans and frightened of their stares

Frightened of the poisons they pump into the air

Frightened of the chemicals they spray upon the land

Frightened of the power they hold within their hands

Frightened of bureaucracy and frightened of the law

Frightened of the government and who it's working for

Frightened of the children who won't know who to cope

With a world in rack and ruin from their technocratic dope, dope, dope

Fear can be a bum thing

A silly and a dumb thing

Fear can be the one thing

That keeps us in the dark

Frightened of the humans, frightened of their stares

Frightened of the poisons pumped into the air

Frightened of the chemicals they spray upon the land

Frightened of the power they hold within their hands

Frightened of bureaucracy and frightened of the law

Frightened of the government and who it's working for

Frightened of the children who won't know who to cope

With a world in rack and ruin from their technocratic dope, dope, dope

Fear can be a bum thing

A silly and a dumb thing

Fear can be the one thing

That keeps us in the dark

Fear can be a bum thing

A silly and a dumb thing

Fear can be the one thing

That keeps us all apart

Frightened of the humans, frightened of their stares

Frightened of the poisons pumped into your air

Frightened of the chemicals spayed upon my land

Frightened of the power hold within their hands

Frightened of bureaucracy, frightened of the law

Frightened of the government who's actions lead to war

Frightened of the children who won't know who to cope

With a world in rack and ruin from their technocratic dope, dope, dope

Fear can be a bum thing

A silly and a dumb thing

Fear can be the one thing

That keeps us in the dark

Fear can be a bum thing

A silly and a dumb thing

Fear can be the one thing

That keeps us all apart
