The Music Box |
Must’ve left it when they moved out |
In a hurry to flee the town |
Armoured tanks broke through all of the soldier’s ranks |
You can be sure they weren’t shooting blanks |
From bodies laid out on the ground |
There’s a song your father had sung |
When you were just knee high |
Now a soldier plays the same tune |
From the toy you left behind |
Something to remind you |
Something to remind you |
Burnt to black there’s aface you don’t recognise |
Just a doll with hollow eyes |
And a feeling you can’t describe |
In factories, toys are made by the companies |
Who create our killing machines |
So the planet can rest at ease |
There’s a story you ahd to hear |
When you couldn’t sleep at all |
Now the pages are burning |
In some sad unholy war |
Something to remind you |
Something to remind you |
Something to remind you |
The ones you left behind you |
Something to remind you |
Something to remind you |
Something to remind you |
The ones you left behind you |
The music box plays a song that I used to love |
But now I can’t remember what it was |
For my memory has faded |
