Dusty Sound System* - Nation at War
*Robin Bennett
theres an amber light flashing so I guess your ought to stay indoors
theres some trash on television where they turning all the pretty girls into
s
There are franic voices saying to remember we re a nation at war
but don t get up from your chair, cause theres no one there that we re
standing up for
I was talking to a friend about how freedom doesnt matter anymore
if we hide away in houses and our voices can be easily ignored
my friends just said hey buddy don t you know that we re a nation at war?
and I noticed that his fingers we re increasingly looking like claws
now they re tearing up the country and they re turning us all into outlaws
When the sun returns in spring time the bitter stars feel just like such a draw
and my half constructed arguments just tumble like a city made of straw
and the world just keeps on spinning, but my mind is like a nation at war
but my memory must be fading cause I dont know what I m staying up for
Well our leaders speak of freedom but you know thy re only settling a score
they hide away in houses under cover of our necessary law
any lie is justified when youre a nation at war
and the helping hands they offered were increasingly looking like claws
now they re turning up the country and turning us all into outlaws
now they re turning up the country and turning us all into outlaws
