The Consequences of War by Rubens
The Consequences of War by Rubens

Waking up to yet another
God-forsaking war
Empty-headed greedy men
Rotten to the core
Tomorrow’s newborn “enemies”
Thanks to this will roar
And nothing’s gonna change until
We all insist NO MORE.

They always have a reason
And it’s always something “just”
It’s always fighting “monsters”
And bombing them to dust
If we don’t keep buying weapons
Our economy will rust
And nothing’s gonna change until 
We all insist NO MORE.

There’ll be a hidden motive
And it’s usually oil
We barely need excuses
To put boots on foreign soil
Politicians use the army
To keep their ratings on the boil
And nothing’s gonna change until
We all insist NO MORE.

There’ll always be a dossier
That’s completely watertight
We’re always making orphans
And they’re almost never white
We perpetuate the cycle
Killing kids by satellite
And nothing’s gonna change until
We all insist NO MORE.

It’s time to send a message
That the world can’t just ignore
It’s time to stop our leaders
Using twitter to keep score
It’s time to vote and time to march
And time for us to care,
for,
Nothing’s gonna ever change
 ’Till we all shout 
FUCK WAR
