New Model Army - All Of This

All Of This
New Model Army

Sullivan/Heaton
There's a sentry in a uniform

To watch the VIPs along the wall
Strategical discussions taking place
Behind the steel plated wall
To the waiting press who circulate the words
Justification propaganda
The agents issue the statements

In the name of the people
Western foreign policy across the world
All of this done in the name of the people

They read their books and study hard
West of the University Road
The world outside is ghostCigarettes lit in the claustrophobic gloom
Frustrated and impatient and
Death is an aphrodiasiac now
Intelligence sharp and twisted like a child
The fuses on the table slowly wired
In the name of the people...

Standing here on the wrong side

Hold me tight, hold me fast
There are no questions left for us to ask
Of this bullet
It's soldiers' night at the discotheque
Pick up a girl and drink to home afar
Spending money like water
On the watered drinks available at the bar
The ones who never were given much
Never asked much of anything in recall
But there's a black bag in the corner
And it doesn't belong to anyone here at all
In the name of the people
