Xtc - War Dance lyrics

Stirring passions in young hearts

Even the old campaigners

Have got it really bad

Well we ain't seen nothing like it

Since coronation day

But when the street parties sound

I'm going underground

To keep the rabid hounds at bay

Oh my my -- this war dance

A patriotic romance

No we ain't seen nothing like it

Since coronation day

But when the tickatape flies

And blood is on the rise

You know it's got you in its sway

You got yourself a war dance

There's a cheap sensation

Keeping Fleet Street wide awake

Everyone wants a slice of

The jingoistic cake

And they're resurrecting Churchill

And bringing national service back

Fueling power and glory fever

Makes for a sicker Union Jack

Yes I'm talking about this war dance

A patriotic romance

And I know all you poets

Have seen it all before

About the stirring of those young hearts

Back in the first world war

Oh my my this war dance
