Citizen Fish - Join The Dots lyrics

Piles of bodies on the nightclub floor The d** that arrive from a distant shore Poppies in fields get torched in a war On everything we ever knew before Didn't you used to buy this stuff To feed your youth to keep them dazed? Even as you talk of a war on d** The name on the cheque says cia Burn the supply and raise the price On the streets where the votes were disallowed The voice against war is the voice of the poor And those that turned their heads around So when you see us laughing it's a sign of self defense A mirror for the madness that replaces common sense Flags get flown on the way back home From the wars that end when the whistle's blown Kit supplied from a factory, sewn For a fraction of the price where the rice gets grown Patriotic fervour rests Its legs on desperations back When asked to justify itself It wrapped it's silence in a flag And the big man cheers for the price of a beer And the peace distraction brings Away from the news and the darkened views As empires spread their wings So when you see us laughing it's a sign of self defense A mirror for the madness that replaces common sense
