The Exploited - Let's start a war...LET'S START A WAR


LET'S START A WAR
(Said Maggie One Day)

Let's start a war said Maggie one day
With the unemployement masses we'll just do away
They won't mind, like sheep they'll go
They won't suss us, they'll never know

Chorus:
Let's start a war said Maggie one day
Let's start a war said Maggie one day
Let's start a war said Maggie one day
You fight for your country
You die for thei gain

Death and destruction all around
Shops nad houses are razed to the ground
Burnt out houses empty shells
Here on earth it's just a mortal hell

Chorus

How they died no-one will ever know
They said they would have us as deterrents they would be used
Except they brought destruction to an earth that grows no food
Now we are gone for ever no tombs can hold your names

Chorus


INSANITY

I've been made an orphan
No family life have I
My parents were no soldiers
Yet they were killed before my eyes

Christians in a free world
Free from what, we ask
Not from death or destruction
'Cause we haven't learnt from the past

I've been made an orphan
No family life have I
My parents were no soldiers
Yet they were killed before my eyes

Burnt out houses petrol bombed
Down the street where I was born
Screams of terror haunt my mind
Where my mama went and died from a booby trapped mine


SAFE BELOW

They said they would prevent a war
To stop the suffering for ever more
No wars to fight no blood to shed
But they were lying we'll soon be dead

Chorus:
And now you're as good as dead
And now you're as good as dead

The button is pushed it's all begun
Those alive they'll soon be none
In the distance a yellow sun
And still we pray for death to come

Chorus

The troops are out there on patrol
Passing burnt lumps as they go
My clothes are in shreds I can barely see
Whilst all around is death and disease

Chorus

I picture maggie in my mind
SAfe below she's feeling fine
She has no burns no torn off limbs
She sits on her arse and plays silly games

Chorus


EYES OF THE VULTURE

Death as seen through a vulture's eyes
Four hundred feet above a sunlit sky
Doen't have to kill to stay alive
Man the animals is its provider

Chorus:
See the darkned
See the darkned
See the darkned Lebanese skies

See the darkned Lebanese skies
Vultures pick on those who died
Bloated bodies stench the air
While Israel soldiers stand and stare

Chorus

MAn the animal is its provider
And it doesn't give a damn why man kills man
And it never seeks no answer as long as there's corpses
All supplied by political gangsters

Chorus


SHOULD WE, CAN'T WE

Guns go off around my head
As I fall over the fallen dead
Cordite fumes that sting my eyes
The infantry's always the first to die

Chorus:
Who is right, who is wrong
Should we can't we ban all bombs
Who is right, who is wrong
Should we can't we ban all bombs

The infantry's always the first to die
Trained to kill but never told why
No farewells in the field of goodbyes
Soldiers die and civilians cry

Chorus

Who is right and who is wrong
Should we can't we ban all bombs
Will we be the first to try
Can we trust them not to lie

Chorus

Should we can't we ban all bombs


RIVAL LEADERS

The countdown has started to go
Computer are locked on their foes
The President is on his way
Down to live another way

Chorus:
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
Here we go

The fail Safety mechanism's off
The baby lies sleeping in its cot
The Mother reads her magazine
Her son's in the kitchen eating ice cream

Chorus

The 4 minute warnings start to go
Soon you'll be dead you'll never know
It's started to lift off its pad
It's on its way isn't that sad

Chorus

The countdown has started to go
Computer are locked on their foes
Thatcher is on her way
Down to the bunker for another day

Chorus


GOD SAVED THE QUEEN

Panic, all hell breaks loose
A battered body screams abuse
A plastic bullet ends his youth
A motherless son turns and pukes

Chorus:
Behind closed curtains
Terror stares

What are they doing prowling round our streets
Who are they looking for with bullets in their breech
Screamig sirens fill the air
Then turn of nowhere there's coppers everywhere

Chorus

God saved the Queen with blanks from a gun
But who is our protector when provoked to run
We still don't know why they surrounded the streets
But now they've withdrawn in full retreat

Chorus


KIDOLOGY

Thousand of people gathered on a beach
Some came to lsiten while others came to preach
They had to plan this meeting and keep it quite dicreet
For the Poles to survive they must pretend defeat

To help you rid those scum

Chorus:
Kidology Kidology perfect it to an art
Kidology Kidology keep them in the dark

Grow you must in silence
Your strength will overcome
There's others on the outside
To help you rid those scum

To help you rid those scum

Chorus


FALSE HOPES

They're out to kill the working class
That means you and me
Maggie knows she can go and stuff
Her non-working policies

False hopes, job creations
False hopes, job creations
False hopes, job creations
Affecting you and me

False hopes like job creations
Are there to keep you down
Straws in hte wind for the working man
Create nowt but misery

Chorus

Columns of the living dead
No voices to hear their plight
Stumble on aimlessly every day
To a perpetual night

Chorus

Columns of the living dead
No voices to hear their plight
Stumble on aimlessly every day
To a perpetual night

Chorus

The working man is dying
Now robots thake his place
And soon it will be your turn
To be redundant from the human race

Chorus


ANOTHER DAY TO GO NOWHERE

Another day to go nowhere
Another day to go nowhere
Another day to go nowhere
Another day to go nowhere

Another factory closes down
Protesting voices have been drowned
Just another town that's died
Work force workers go home and cry

Chorus

Another family leaves the town
Try their luck southward
Its only hope that spurs them on
Lost horizons, dream on

Chorus

Another day to go nowhere
Nights of boredom trigger despair
Anarchy breaks ou in workless homes
Ousted sons and daughters roams

Chorus

Another corpses hangs from a tree
Is suicide left for you and me
Reared up in a workless zone
Teaches the damned to free their own

Chorus


WANKERS
ARMY STYLE

Detailed for a firing party
An enemy of the state is gonna be killed
The firing squads are dressed to kill
Duty first and they're well drilled

Chorus:
Army style
Army style
Army style
And they're dressed to kill

Questions pound my head
Why should we take part in another man's death
One way thinkers possessed and trapped
Caught in a system where you can't answer back

Chorus
Repeat verse 1
Chorus
Repeat verse 2
Chorus


SINGALONGABUSHELL

Bushell said that punk was dead

Wanker

Bushell said that punk was dead
He's two faced he's off his head

Wanker

Bushell said that punk was dead
He's two faced he's off his head
Jerry Harris is a toss

Wankers

Bushell said that punk was dead
He's two faced he's off his head
Jerry Harris is a toss
Without them both there'll be no loss

Wankers
