War TV letra

There's a war on the TV in a town called the world
And the suits turn their profit while the mayhem unfurls
They're all quick to make war but they won't send their sons
Shout the odds like a gangster but they won't hold a gun

And I'm no' scared of dying I'll fight any man
I might no' be the strongest but I'll do what I can
And I'm no' that religious but if god's got a plan
Then I don't think it's bombing in a far away land

And there's no use pretending that you don't understand
With your arse in the air and your head in the sand
You don't need me tell you that's the way that it goes
Because deep down inside.
Way deep down inside you already know

I don't mean to offend or add fuel to the fire
We're all stood in silence while the head count gets higher
There's divided opinion every corner you turn
Now Nero stands laughing while the Empire burns

And there's no use pretending that you don't understand
With your arse in the air and your head in the sand
You don't need me tell you that's the way that it goes
Because deep down inside.
Way deep down inside you already know

There's a race to the finish from the east to the west
'Cause we're all waking up now where there's some try their best
To divide us and conquer like chickens and cows
On the animal farm as the sun's going down

And there's no use pretending that you don't understand
With your arse in the air and your head in the sand
You don't need me tell you that's the way that it goes
Because deep down inside.
Way deep down inside
Way deep down inside
Way deep down inside you already know
