Ordinary Violence

Ordinary violence, the reassuring kind
A sniper at the checkpoint, drop a bomb on the breadline
Building coffins cut wood & screws
Fill 'em with the people from the evening news
But don't you worry, don't you worry

Another boring surprise, another cheap disguise
Princes telling lies

Stupid people (that's most of us)
Got to find somebody else to place our trust
Tell us the difference between wrong & right
Good & evil, keep it black & white
But if you're willing to die for what you believe
Then we're happy to kill you all

For the homeland
