The Dogs Of War
Dogs of war, and men of hate -
With no cause, we don't discriminate.
Discovery is to be disowned -
Our currency is flesh and bone.
Hell opened up, and put on sale -
Gather round and haggle!
For hard cash, we will lie and deceive -
Even our masters don't know the webs we weave!
One world - it's a battleground -
One world, and we will smash it down!
One world.... one world....
Invisible transfers, long distance calls -
Hollow laughter in marble halls.
Steps have been taken, a silent uproar,
Has unleashed the dogs of war!
You can't stop what has begun,
Signed, sealed, they deliver oblivion!
We all have a dark side, to say the least -
And dealing in death is the nature of the beast.
One world - it's a battleground -
One world, and we will smash it down!
One world.... one world....
The dogs of war don't negotiate,
The dogs of war won't capitulate.
They will take and you will give,
And you must die so that they may live!
You can knock at any door,
But wherever you go, you know they've been there before.
Well, winners can lose, and things can get strained,
But whatever you change, you know the dogs remain.
One world - it's a battleground -
One world, and we will smash it down!
One world.... one world....
[Pink Floyd, from the album A Momentary Lapse Of Reason]
