The government talks about conscription
Another self-imposed restriction.
Their excuse is no conviction.
Patriotism: It's all fiction.
There ain't no patriots here no more.
Who's gonna fight in the third world war?
Everyone knows it just ain't right.
Don't we get the chance to live or die?
They give us hardship all our life
And when we refuse they wonder why.
Well I won't fight for my country
'Cause the government wouldn't fight for me.
They can't afford the Dole money.
So they'll put the unemployed in the army.
Another self-imposed restriction.
Their excuse is no conviction.
Patriotism: It's all fiction.
There ain't no patriots here no more.
Who's gonna fight in the third world war?
Everyone knows it just ain't right.
Don't we get the chance to live or die?
They give us hardship all our life
And when we refuse they wonder why.
Well I won't fight for my country
'Cause the government wouldn't fight for me.
They can't afford the Dole money.
So they'll put the unemployed in the army.
