Illegal Attacks |
| So what the fuck is this UK |
| Gunnin' with this US of A |
| In Iraq and Iran and in Afghanistan |
| Does not a day go by |
| Without the Israeli Air Force |
| Fail to drop it’s bombs from the sky? |
| How many mothers to cry? |
| How many sons have to die? |
| How many missions left to fly over Palestine? |
| ‘Cause as a matter of facts |
| It’s a pact, it’s an act |
| These are illegal attacks |
| So bring the soldiers back |
| These are illegal attacks |
| It’s contracts for contacts |
| I’m singing concrete facts |
| So bring the soldiers back |
| What mean ya that you beat my people |
| What mean ya that you beat my people |
| And grind the faces of the poor |
| So tell me just how come were the Taliban |
| Sat burning incense in Texas |
| Roaming round in a Lexus |
| Sittin' on six billion oil drums |
| Down with the Dow Jones, up on the Nasdaq |
| Pushed into the war zones |
| It’s a commercial crusade |
| ‘Cause all the oil men get paid |
| And only so many soldiers come home |
| It’s a commando crusade |
| A military charade |
| And only so many soldiers come home |
| What mean ya that you beat my people |
| What mean ya that you beat my people |
| And grind the faces of the poor |
| Soldiers, soldiers come home |
| Soldiers come home |
| Through all the blood and sweat |
| Nobody can forget |
| It ain’t the size of the dog in the fight |
| It’s the size of the fight in the dog on the day or the night |
| There’s no time to reflect |
| On the threat, the situation, the bark nor the bite |
| These are commercial crusades |
| ‘Cos all the oil men get paid |
| These are commando crusades |
| Commando tactical rape |
| And from the streets of New York and Baghdad to Tehran and Tel Aviv |
| Bring forth the prophets of the Lord |
| From dirty bastards fillin' pockets |
| With the profits of greed |
| These are commercial crusades |
| Commando tactical raids |
| Playin' military charades to get paid |
| And who got the devils? |
| And who got the Lords? |
| Build yourself a mountain, drink up in the fountain |
| Soldiers come home |
| Soldiers come home |
| Soldiers, soldiers come home |
| Soldiers, soldiers come home |
| What mean ya that you beat my people |
| What mean ya that you beat my people |
| And grind the faces of the poor |
| What mean ya that you beat my people |
| What mean ya that you beat my people |
| And grind the faces of the poor |
