In an upstairs room
in Blackpool
by the side of
a northern sea
The army
had my father
and my mother
was having me
Military madness
was killing my country
solitary sadness
comes over me
And after the school
was over
and I moved
to the other side
I found another country
but I never
lost my pride
Military madness
was killing the country
solitary sadness
creeps over me
And after the
wars are over
And the body counts
are finally filed
I hope that man
discovers
what's driving
the people wild
Military madness
is killing your country
so much sadness
between you and me
War!
War, War
War, War
War, War
War, War
