Conflict

Looking for an answer to end all the violence
But youll find no solutions behind the white paper
Searching for a way to break down that fence
Do you really believe in this ludicrous caper?
Mountbatten murdered - a rebel gunmans been shot dead
"Theyre all murdering bastards" - or was that something that I read?
Well, whatever - its just the same -death, destruction, violence and pain
This side, that side, that side, this side
What side? Any side. You cant side me
That side, this side, this side, that side
What side? Any side. You cant side me
Where could it end? What could the outcome be?
One things for sure therell be a lot more corpses before the Government can see
A lot more screaming bullets. A lot more children dead
And a lot more Bloody Sundays all painted in red
A lot more pointless talks and a lot more death walks
A whole lot more of whose tribe should rule
The squaddies on the corner. The gunmans on the roof
Whos the real terrorist? Well dont look to the media for your proof
The British Empire aint what it used to be, mate!
And its a bit late to try and make it great
So, whats the point in fighting out there?
British Constitution on a lands fate
The Vengill computer sums it all up
Its just packed with reasons to cut peoples lives up
Well whatever, its just the same
Death, destruction, violence and pain
I see no point in deciding
Because I wont fight for troops in Ireland
I wont shoot the IRA dead
And I wont smash no bastards head
Because I dont want to die
Do you want to die?
This side, that side, that side, this side
Right side, wrong side. Cant side me
This side, that side, that side, this side
What side? Your side. Cant side me
