Track 6 of 10

lyrics

They say my generation lost its soul to television
I guess it’s hard to argue with that
The way the winds are blowing
Showing us where we are going
We wonder if we’ll ever turn back

Make sure to send a letter to your local representative
He’ll make sure you’re taken care of
But none of my friends
Have a stamp that they could lend me
At least none I’m aware of

We never started a war
We never shot to kill
We never started a war
But we will

They say your generation lost its mind to superstition
It clouded all the ideas you had
All the women in the kitchen
Would sit around and listen
You made all of the good news sound bad

And every time you looked up at the sky
You’d fear it coming down
To make you pay for breaking its heart
But it isn’t the heavens you should worry about
It’s the fact that you’re coming apart

You never thought you’d start a war
No one to fight with
You never thought you’d start a war
But you did

We never started a war
We never shot to kill
We never started a war
But we will
