Cannons
(Look alive
Pick a side
Draw a line
In the sand
You're just the band)
They treat us like we're extras in an epic
They treat us like we're mud on their boots
They leave us on the stretchers when the credits roll
Retreating safely to institutes
Where dinner party military forces
Toast themselves with the blood of us all
Smashing regimes between curses
Chanting education, education and war
We're gonna need a lot more cannons
We're gonna need a lot more cannons
If you wanna be home by Christmas
If we gotta be home by Christmas
I know there is another way
If you want to see their face again
I know they feel the same way over there
They're making all the difficult decisions
Politicians and children first
Followed by their personal physicians who say:
"You will be happy if you expect the worst"
Armed with paper straws and a bible
Lamps are going out across
department stores
You will be issued with a rifle
on arrival chaps
For education, education and war
We're gonna need a lot more cannons
We're gonna need a lot more cannons
If you wanna be home by Christmas
If we gotta be home by Christmas
I know there is another way
If you want to see their face again
I know they feel the same way over there
I know there is another way
If you want to see their face again
I know they feel the same way over there
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Show us the way to go
Hell or heaven help us
Show us the way to go
Save our souls, show us the way back home
Save our souls, show us the way to go
(Quick time
Get in Line
Get Behind
The man in front
You're the grunts)

We're gonna need a lot more cannons
If you wanna be home by Christmas

I know there is another way
If you want to see their face again
I know they feel the same way over there
I know there is another way
If you want to see their face again
I know they feel the same way over there
Hell or heaven help us
