Lyrics Veterans Day - Matthew Ryan

Veterans Day

Shiny shoes and polished bronze
Another old man without an arm
Empty streets a daylight moon
Barely a crowd lines the parade route
It’s Veteran’s Day
It’s Veteran’s Day
It’s Veteran’s Day
It’s Veteran’s Day
Red balloons and purple hearts
Lives and family torn apart
All is tattered and soon to pop
The cavalcade wheezes before it stops
It’s Veteran’s Day
It’s Veteran’s Day
It’s Veteran’s Day
It’s Veteran’s Day
Politicians pull the triggers
But they never carry the guns
They legislate the land, follow the polls on CNN
Fold their hands and call on the poorer ones
It’s Veteran’s Day
It’s Veteran’s Day
It’s Veteran’s Day
It’s Veteran’s Day
It’s Veteran’s Day
It’s Veteran’s Day
Until there’s no one left to tell
Until there’s no one left to tell
War is hell
War is hell
