lyrics

An age of many wars is waging.
Face it, we are where we made us.
So I gave up and under all is painless.
Maybe it will make more sense when he comes home for dinner.
War is on his mind tonight.
Please be, she needs you now more than ever.
Look at your apetite, she sees you getting thinner.
And she wants you here with her.
First come, first serve,
Hot gun, shot nerves,
Fancy medal, absent fellow.
Playing the travesty he saw in late September,
Violent are his eyes tonight.
Please be! He needs you now more than ever.
Maybe if godlessness could heal he would get better.
But that's sillier now than you think.
Sweet Jesus can't you see us running around?
We've got a bad account and a wide open mouth.
Dear Mary would you carry on without?
We've got no right to be indignant anyhow.
Maybe it will make more sense when I get to my maker.
Only in a little while.
Sweet sound I need you now more than ever.
Maybe this war will end when I become the other.
