The spirit of war is all around us

'N' everybody knows somethin's goin' on

Fasten your seat belts - say goodbye to your mothers

Cos everybody knows somethin's goin' on

Nuclear missiles - cover to cover

Everybody knows somethin's goin' on

The world is a subway - all the leaders are muggers

'N' everybody knows somethin's goin' on

Well I say

Roll up to the party - welcome to the show

We'll make you live in fear - then we'll make you disappear

Somethin's goin' on 'n' everybody knows

What you got - what you got

Everybody knows somethin's goin' on

Most people got nothin' - a few got the lot

'N' everybody knows - it's still goin' on

Well I say

Roll up to the circus - welcome to death row

Just do what we say - then we'll blow you all away

Somethin's goin' on 'n' everybody knows

What about hunger... are they just another number?

We're all an endangered species

'N' everybody knows - it's still goin' on

Well I say

Welcome to Thanksgiving - what we reap is what we sow

We'll watch you die in vain from the safety of our plane

Somethin's goin' on 'n' everybody knows
