In an upstairs room in blackpool
By the side of a Northern Sea
The army had my father
And my mother was having meMilitary madness
Was killing my country
Solitary sadness
Comes over meAnd after the school was over
And I moved to the other side
I found another country
But I never lost my pride
Military madness
Was killing the country
Solitary sadness
Creeps over meAnd after the wars are over
And the body count is finally filed
I hope that man discovers
What's driving the people wild
Military madness
Is killing your country
So much sadness
Between you and me
War, war, war
War, war, war
