Up In arms Lyrics by The Social Services

0

We go to war to liberate
Seek only to emancipate
But in reality it's just kill and take take take
The planes land oh so secretly
Then go off on a torture spree
If this is what you call democracy you're crazy
You might put your gun to my head
Beat me till my blood runs red
But I'm not joining your army
There must be some other way
Life's too high a price to pay
For not finding an answer
A boy of only eight years old
Was given a gun and some drugs and told
Kill your family or we'll kill you
While little girls are brutalised
We close our apathetic eyes
Then war breaks out and we say it's no surprise
When they put their guns to your head
Beat you till your blood runs red
You have to join their army
There must be some other way
Life's too high a price to pay
For not finding an answer
