lyrics

I've seen it all, now I know that it's true
They've uprooted gardens and emptied the zoo
But What the hell can just one man do?

It really puts my back up
I think I'm gonna crack up

The pen in hand, stronger than the sword
Strike a chord with the broke and bored
Some have their reasons for going to war

But I won't recognise them, not lookin for a fight
I'm never gonna join em, I know my left from right

Fools may lead the blind into the sea
Never get their meathooks into me

I seen it all with my own two eyes
The warning signs hard to recognise
But the crocodiles they still manage to smile

If they come I will not fear them
If they block me I will clear them

Ancient dragons still ruling the lair
They'll burn you out, without a care
Whoever told you that this life was fair?

But I wont' recognise them, not lookin for a fight
I'm never gonna join em, I know my left from right

Fools may lead the blind into the sea
Never get their meathooks into me
