Wild Geese
Wild Geese
War in the streets
War amongst we people
All we got to do is hear them say
No War, no war etc.

Who sells the guns?
Who makes the wars?
Who does deals
On the backs of the poor?
Who sells the gas?
Who peddles the lies?
Who makes profit
Out of mass genocide?

Did Romanian gypsies
shut down the mines?
Did Kosovan exiles
Shatter our lives?
Did Somalian migrants
Poison our seas?
Who cut the rain forests?
Iraqi refugees?

War in the East
War amongst we people
All we got to do is hear them say
No war

Who gave the guns to
Saddam Hussein?
And looks the other way
When genocide reigns?
And who runs the banks?
And is taking the profits?
And who’ll keep on making it
Unless we get to stop it?

Who runs the telly?
And the tabloid lies?
Who is sitting back
When the people start to die?
Did Iranian migrants
Cut the NHS?
Did Kurdish rebels
profit from the mess?

War in Iraq
War against we people
All we got to do is hear them say
No war

Stand up now
Stand up for your rights
There’s only one way
Gotta stand and fight
Don’t sit back
With your hands in your pocket
Nothin’s gonna change
Unless we gonna stop it

Everything we say
Everything we do
Gotta pull together
Gotta pull through
The only thing we got
Is our brothers and our sisters
The only thing we gotta do
Is organise resistance

War in the East
War against we people
All we got to do is hear them say
No war
