The praises of war and war heroes the patriots and nationalists may sing
But war in reality is a terrible thing
And lessons cannot be learned in what we glorify
On our glorification of war the wrong of it we do deny
Between war and terrorism the difference not great
Yet a terrorist few would dare to celebrate
War to terrorism more often than not gives rise
And those who say that war leads to peace believe in their own lies
For the sins of the warlords the innocents with their lives do pay
Civilians are dying in war zones every day
Thousands of people every day from war zones across borders do flee
How tragic is life for the war refugee
Lessons cannot be learned from where heroes are made
Today in the big town another big war parade.
