The Beautiful Occupation |
| Don’t just stand there watching it happening |
| I can’t stand it |
| Don’t feel it |
| Something telling me |
| Don’t wanna go out this way |
| But have a nice day |
| Then read it in the headlines |
| Watch it on the TV |
| Put it in the background |
| Stick it in the back |
| Stick it in the back |
| For the beautiful occupation |
| The beautiful occupation |
| You don’t need an invitation |
| To drop in upon a nation |
| I’m too cynical |
| I’m just sitting here |
| I’m just wasting my time |
| Half a million civilians gonna die today |
| But look the wrong way |
| Then read it in the headlines |
| Watch it on the TV |
| Put it in the background |
| Stick it in the back |
| Stick it in the back |
| For the beautiful occupation |
| The beautiful occupation |
| You don’t need an invitation |
| To drop in upon a nation |
| Don’t just stand there |
| Watching it happening |
| I can’t feel it |
| Don’t need this |
| Something telling me |
| I don’t wanna go out this way |
| But have a nice day |
| Then read it in the headlines |
| Watch it on the TV |
| Put it in the background |
| Stick it in the back |
| Stick it in the back |
| For the beautiful occupation |
| The beautiful occupation |
| You don’t need an invitation |
| To drop in upon a nation |
| The beautiful occupation |
| The beautiful occupation |
| So much for an intervention |
| Don’t call the United Nations |
