In an upstairs room in Blackpool
By the side of a northern sea
The army had my father
And my mother was having me
Military madness was killing my country
Solitary sadness comes over meAfter the school was over and I moved
To the other side
I found a different country but I never
Lost my pride
Military madness was killing the country
Solitary sadness creeps over meAnd after the wars are over
And the body count is finally filed
I hope that the Man discovers
What's driving the people wild
Military madness is killing your country
So much sadness, between you and me
War, War, War, War, War, War
