[Verse 1] They were my neighbours, How could I know, Behind that friendly, Wave and hello, They were plotting, To overthrow, Our government, That we all owe. [Pre-chorus 1] Now I know where to hang the blame, For all the grievances and shame. Still it don't really seem humane, To see them beaten in the rain. [Chorus 1] But it's time to fly while you settle the score, I don't wanna be here no more. You say it's all within the law. But the peace you're selling sure feels a lot like war. [Verse 2] They were our allies, How could we see, Behind the treaties, And diplomacy, They were plotting, Against our needs. Across the ocean, Come poisoned seeds. [Pre-chorus 2] Now I know where to hang the blame, For all the grievances and shame. Still it don't really seem humane. On their cities our rockets rain. [Chorus 2] But it's time to fly while you settle the score, I don't wanna be here no more. You say it's all within the law. But the peace you're selling sure feels a lot like war. [Verse 3] They were our enemies, Everyone knew. All they stood for, We hated too. Behind the scenes, There was you two Handshakin' deals, To benefit you. [Pre-chorus 3] Now I know where to hang the blame, For all the grievances and shame. The vote we gave the inhumane. The fault was ours, when that day came. [Chorus 3] But it's time to fly while you settle the score, I don't wanna be here no more. You say it's all within the law. But the peace you're selling sure feels a lot like war. [Chorus 4] But it's time to fly while you settle the score, I don't wanna be here no more. You say it's all within the law. But the peace you're selling sure feels a lot like war.
