Cheap The Bullet Lyrics

Cheap The Bullet lyrics

(John Lees)

 >"What price your life now, how cheap the bullet"<

 the streets ran red with the blood of the innocent
 why, why, why
 we stab our knives in the back of humanity
 why, why, why
 there's never peace just a spiral of violence
 why, why, why
 we'll shoot you down for a difference of opinion
 why, why, why

 cheap the bullet, easy the gun
 sons and daughters lost and gone
 cheap the bullet, easy the gun
 no talk, no thought
 just shoot and run

 our children wake to the bomb and the body search
 why, why, why
 we fill their ears with the drums and the battle crys
 why, why, why
 they burn your car when you stray it's a game they play
 why, why, why
 they're fed on hate it's a circle we don't want to break
 why, why, why

 cheap the bullet, easy the gun
 sons and daughters lost and gone
 cheap the bullet, easy the gun
 no talk, no thought
 just shoot and run

 i'm baptised in your prejudice
 i'm confirmed with your hate
 i'm ordained into violence
 i'm a child of the modern world.
 of the media world
 of the t.v. world
 of the modern world

 cheap the bullet, easy the gun
 sons and daughters lost and gone
 cheap the bullet, easy the gun
 no talk, no thought
 just shoot and run
