So their generals gave a call and gathered troops at the border
 With guns at ready, drawn and aimed
 each side was praying to a god 
 to bless them with strength and courage
 and it was in his name artillery lit the sky on fire
 the people sang protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun

 Protest Songs in a response to Military Aggression
 Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun
 The battle raged on......

 Sirens filled the air and the ground shook with war
 Civilian casualties has been a cost that was predetermined
 when interviewed for report victims pleaded in [bad word] 
 Their claim: That this was a war without reason
 and bureacrats engaged in debate to try and reach a resolution
 the people sang protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun

 Protest Songs in a response to Military Aggression
 Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun
 Protest Songs in a response to Military Aggression
 Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun
 The battle raged on......

 Well the Broadcast like their prayers went unanswered and ignored
 god, like the rest of the world, just watched in silence
 There was purpose to be served, there were fortunes to be earned
 before a peace could be called to stop the fighting
 They sang...
