Darden Smith & Boo Hewerdine - Tell Me Why lyrics

Build a wall around Berlin Try to keep the world outside From Threadneedle to Wall Street They're just cutting up pieces of the pie Just take a look around See what we have done Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why Hang your head and cry Look out any window Just watch the sun go down With a smokestack for a paintbrush We're talking green and red and yellow and purple and blue and brown Just take a deeper breath Hear the time bomb ticking away Come sit down to dinner Oh put your toys away Poor baby you must be hungry And what you don't want you can just throw it away The sins of our fathers Its children must pay
