Back to the Trenches

Presidents and peace spreading poets Getting gunned down in the streets Shown to us on our prime time screens For our tea time treat Lunatics we voted for denying Everything that they swore We sit around and shout about it But we dont do nothing more Drafted for police action But they decided on a war Telling us we were saving mankind Why dont you ask cambodia We were solving it with marijuana We were sure that we could Always leavin it to someone else Just knocking on wood Were goin back to the trenches Were goin back to the trenches Well you say you got a say so But youre knowin that it aint so And you turn away You think its safer to ignore it But the score is your children have to pay Everybody wants better Everybody talkin bout it Are we wastin time Gotta stop only lookin, talkin Were all guilty of the crime Were goin back to the trenches Were goin back to the trenches We gotta move, we got everything to lose We gotta move, we got everything to lose Were all headed for the front But everybodys fightin for a good address Its time we made the changes Or well be burnin with the rest We just aint communicatin and I dont Mean conversations on the telephone When nero starts to fiddle this time Theres a lot more gonna burn than rome Were goin back to the trenches Were goin back to the trenches Were goin back to the trenches Were goin back to the trenches (written by nazareth) Copyright 1982 fool circle lusic limited All rights reserved.
