Soldiers

(album: Soldiers - 1996)

Around the corner every morning just to see you get across
The civic fathers divide us up into cats and dogs
The sergeant major of the neighbourhood is weighing up the cost

The senior transit lane
While we're standing in the rain
Worried if our heads will fall
All right, right

We'll stay together till the kids die just to keep it clean
Buy the weapons with the sales made from garden magazines
Strike up the ladies to bake tea cakes for the council's war machine

And we're digging up the roads
And widening it just so
You can suffocate at home
All right, right

The Prince of Wales tea
To keep the garden green
But they don't want to be there
The shit can't be there

You woke me up just to check that I'm alive
We talk to each other as if we're five
Raise open the flag just to see which of us cares

And we're digging up the roads
And widening it just so
You can suffocate at home
All right, right
All right
All right
All right

All right
