Tank - The War Drags Ever On
(Written in 1984 - Should become a classic, look at the lyrics!)
A war is raging that we don't understand
And I doubt that we can
There's no mistaking the mad sons of Islam
As they spill blood on the sand
A strange religion, that destroys through the Koran
Freedom's lost in this land
Hades or heaven, they're under its command
Whatever rights had a man
We'll hear the bomb blasts echo 'round the world
With two world wars passed they want to start the third
And as they argue 'bout the planes they shot down
And count the dead they have found
And unholy war that's raising hell to the ground
The war drags ever on, the war drags ever on, ever on
An arm is severed, with a gun still in its hand
And it's just left to be damned
Their main endeveaour has not gone as it was planned
Shoot the boys where they stand
War is forever but as if we had the time
To change their thoughts in their minds
This war will never reflect on all their kind
They should be glad just to die...
We'll hear the bomb blasts echo 'round the world
With two world wars passed they want to start the third
And as they argue 'bout the planes they shot down
And count the dead they have found
And unholy war that's raising hell to the ground
The war drags ever on, the war drags ever on, ever on
