Barbwire Fence |
| The Knife Feels Like Justice |
| Barbwire Fence |
| They took the coal from the mountains, ripped the fruit from the soil |
| Pulled the fish from the sea, drained the earth of its oil |
| Took the Christ out of Christmas, pulled the sun from the sky |
| Their daddies told them to never ask why |
| The barbwire fence is gettin' higher and higher |
| We’re gettin' ready to fight fire with fire |
| It’s gettin' so there ain’t a kind word said |
| But we gotta keep movin' on, pushin' on ahead |
| They led a blind man to a cliff, gave a crippled man a kick |
| Took a poor man to the cleaners and a rich man has his pick |
| Gave a three piece man a job, took an old man to a whore |
| Sent a young boy to a place he ain’t never been before |
| The barbwire fence is gettin' higher and higher |
| We’re gettin' ready to fight fire with fire |
| It’s gettin' so there ain’t a kind word said |
| But we gotta keep movin' on, pushin' on ahead |
| Well if they force me to reason, if they ask me to doubt |
| I’ll fuss then baby and fight 'em baby, ow |
| East wind is blowin' and a full moon is high |
| There’s just no purpose, there’s no reason why |
| The barbwire fence is gettin' higher and higher |
| We’re gettin' ready to fight fire with fire |
| It’s gettin' so there ain’t a kind word said |
| But we gotta keep movin' on, pushin' on ahead |
