[Nena - Us and Them songtext lyrics]
And after all were only ordinary men
Me, and you god only knows it's noz what
We would choose to do
Forward he cried from the rear
And the front rank died
And the general sat and the lines on the map
Moved from side to side black and blue
And who knows which is which and who is who
Up and down
But in the end it's only round and round
Haven't you heard it's a battle of words
The poster bearer cried
Listen son, said the man with the gun
Theres room for you inside
I mean, theyre not gunna kill ya
So if you give em a quick short
Sharp, shock
They won't do it again dig it?
I mean he get off
Lightly, cos I wouldve given him a thrashing
- I only hit him once!
It was only a difference of opinion
But reallyi mean good manners
Don't cost nothing do they eh?
Down and out it can't be helped but theres
A lot of it about with, without
And wholl deny it's what
The fightings all about?
Out of the way, it's a busy day
Ive got things on my mind
For the want of the price of tea and a slice
The old man died
