about

Off the 2012 album "All That Beauty".

lyrics

To sort the boys out from the men
The men send the boys to war
There's too many backs here and not enough wall
So the boys will go for sure
To have a war you need an enemy
Well it's picking time
And it's a very healthy tree

To do some killing you'll always need a gun
If that's not fulfilling
You will also need a bomb
Then make it bigger
Just to let them know
It's your buttons and your triggers
Against their arrows and their bows

To have some loving you've gotta get in bed
To do some killing you've got to have some dead

From the beginning we've had them on the run
But it's gettin so much harder
To know from where they'll come
Could be sitting right beside you
Travelling in disguise
You're just heading for the office
But he's off to paradise
We might be winning but they don't care
They don't mind dying
And that's not fighting fair.....yeah

From the beginning to this very day
There's been a lot of killing
Wouldn't you say?
