Good evening
Lean back it's war again
Another newsflash from the fight
I watch a bloody scene
Running across my TV screen
Familiar faces full of fright
Switch off, it's better to forget
Can't find no sleep lost in regret
How can I close my eyes
And keep my ease of mind
While another country's going up in flames
How can I close my eyes
And keep peace on my mind
While another nation's going down the drain
Go down the drain
An entire nation
Is threatened by starvation
Thank god I got my pantry filled
We see despair and distress
As entertainment at it's best
Just as well known routine
Won't shed no tear, no need to pray
Relief is just one click away
How can I close my eyes
And keep my ease of mind
While another country's going up in flames
How can I close my eyes
And keep peace on my mind
While another nation's going down the drain
Go down the drain
Switch off, it's better to forget
Can't find no sleep lost in regret
How can I close my eyes
And keep my ease of mind
While another country's going up in flames
How can I close my eyes
And keep peace on my mind
While another nation's going down the drain
Go down the drain
