Dan Bull - Guilty lyrics
Daniel “Dan” Bull
[Dan Bull - Guilty lyrics]
It's been ages since I made a tune this raw
But, it's time to draw a
Line in the music hall
I'm fed up of what's not
Got in the news reports
Daily slayings, flayings
What do they do this for?
Planes drop bombs on those with
No food or water
Ha, even Sun Tzu never knew such war
They changed the rules so
This behavior's duly lawful
The human form's morphed to
Become truly awful
There's apathy from who's not involved
But soon we all will
And when it happens to your family
Perhaps that's when you'll be thoughtful
A newly orphaned you mourns for the time
You could have given a shit who
Was led to the slaughter
Mutilated with new forms of brutal torture
Just for living on one side
Of a stupid border
Who'd have thought the conspiracies of
A new world order
Were actually true? Cos me and
You are all just
Guilty, guilty not caring quite enough
The blame doesn't lay just
On governments and militants
The population's got the
Plague of indifference
And nowadays how can you claim ignorance
When you've got the wide
World at your fingertips?
A single click can lead the
Way to a million hit's
But we need to change a Twitter
Status to a physical thing
Quit the wishful thinking
Sitting like an invalid
And stop being a clicktivist
Get up and light the tindersticks
Don't just sit through Shoah
Night and Fog and Schindler's List
Things are happening this minute
While you reminisce ring your politicians
Make them say they'll follow wishes
And if they break their promise
Take away their office quick, they're
But, it's time to draw a
Line in the music hall
I'm fed up of what's not
Got in the news reports
Daily slayings, flayings
What do they do this for?
Planes drop bombs on those with
No food or water
Ha, even Sun Tzu never knew such war
They changed the rules so
This behavior's duly lawful
The human form's morphed to
Become truly awful
There's apathy from who's not involved
But soon we all will
And when it happens to your family
Perhaps that's when you'll be thoughtful
A newly orphaned you mourns for the time
You could have given a shit who
Was led to the slaughter
Mutilated with new forms of brutal torture
Just for living on one side
Of a stupid border
Who'd have thought the conspiracies of
A new world order
Were actually true? Cos me and
You are all just
Guilty, guilty not caring quite enough
The blame doesn't lay just
On governments and militants

And nowadays how can you claim ignorance
When you've got the wide
