US AND THEM br br br Us - and them... br In war or peace, br We're only ordinary men. br br Us - and them... br Love's rose will bloom, br Or else lie broken on the stem. br br You - and me... br We walk in chains, br Or choose the path that sets us free. br br You - and me... br Have one last chance br To make the world as it should be. br br 'Forward! ' the generals cry from the rear br And the soldiers proceed; br Killing and dying in no-man's land br For corporate greed. br br Up - and down... br While people starve, br The arguments go round br And round and round and round... br br Fear - and doubt... br And in the end, br That's what the fighting's all about. br br Rich - and poor... br Link hands and say br That this can't happen anymore. br br Let's cut it down to a battle of words br And then understand; br The truth will survive and we'll all stay alive, br It's in our hands...
