Lyrics
Who's Your Enemy?
?©2005
lyric; Martin Thomas
Robert Beer
Music; Martin Thomas
Who's your enemy? Who's your enemy?
Don't you want an Enemy? Don't you want an enemy?
Who's your enemy? Who's your enemy?
Don't you want an Enemy? Don't you think you need an enemy?
It happened with the Tories when we claimed the land
Then it was the Indians who fought us hand to hand
Then we fought our brothers wearing blue and grey
this bloody mess is going down until Judgment Day
(CHORUS)
My daddy liked the US but didn't like the "Krauts"
when it came to politics it always turned to shouts
a lesson I learned early to always take his side
after all he was my daddy, I could not stem the tide
(CHORUS)
The hippies and the yuppies - the rednecks and the freaks
Hebrew and the Arab-the pagans and the priests
the sausage and the sirloin- the velos and the cars
the ecos and the swizzlesticks- the lawyers and the bars
(CHORUS)
