Barclay James Harvest - Cheap The Bullet lyrics

>"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
