Текст песни Little Town Of Bethlehem

Across the water not so far

Out over where the headlines are

There are people living just like you and I

They've got tank treads tearing up their roads

And bullets through bedroom windows

No work, no wage, no explanation why

They're told come line up for cannon fodder

One more lamb led to the slaughter

Ain't no room in Heaven for the lot of us

For the sake of entertainment stick a needle in your eye

While across the way they sit and watch our bullets flying by

Learning how to need and bleed and grieve and raise a hand

Desperation like we wouldn't understand

Play by the rules and they'll stay the same

Stand and fight and you're ones to blame

Logic strains and hope springs drain but death is never a bore

Sixty years of the same old shit

And if we're this tired of reading about it

Puzzle out if the din and shout were right outside your door

Oh, little town of BethlehemThe 241ers - Little Town Of Bethlehem - http://ru.motolyrics.com/the-241ers/little-town-of-bethlehem-lyrics.html

A US-drawn blank check has got it's profit margins planted on your neck

Oh, little town of Bethlehem

For what it's worth all is not well with Uncle Sam

What do we know about innocence and condemnation?

Not a goddamned thing

And what do we care about where our money is going to?

(Or how it all got over there?)

While we can't pay for national healthcare

For the sake of entertainment stick a needle in your eye

While across the way they sit and watch our bullets flying by

Classes are in session but no one is attending

How to live and how to die

How to fight and when to cry

How to talk like you mean it

Love like you feel it

Laugh like you're going belly up

Shit out of luck

Vicious circles amidst that hallowed golden ground

And life goes on
