hawks and doves - adolescents

Bombers in the sky
No one's asking why
We have to duck and cover
When the bullets start to fly
When the bullets start to fly
We have to duck and hide
Just a game of cat and mouse
Cruise missiles in production
That are locked and set
Annihilate the cancer
Of the US deficit
Spend a little more
Fix it with a war
Just a came of cat and mouse
Work a 60 hour week
Still can't pay the rent
Tax away my wages
To bomb another tent
Bomb another tent
How much money's spent
Just a game of cat and mouse
Treason to contest
Where the money goes
Building shelter, buying clothes
Where does the money go
Where does the money go
Just a game of cat and mouse
Hawks and doves
Blood all over
A gangster debt
Tanks on CNN
Propaganda TV set
Propaganda TV set
Propaganda TV set
Just a game of cat and mouse
Borders we've established
To keep each other out
Serve the purpose all too well
To even talk about
Lock each other up
Lock each other out
A child lays bleeding
From a random shot each day
We can't stand the pain
So we quickly look away
The time has come today
Do not look away
Just a game of cat and mouse
Lock each other up
Lock each other out
Blow it all to hell
In wars we cannot win
Wars we cannot win
Wars we cannot win
Just a game of cat and mouse
