Murderous Games ? D.Chopin/ L.Neesham

Mr Blair in the palace belches blessed relief
While rehearsing his grin and his acceptance speech
Perfecting each syllable ready to preach from his altar
And sheep like and mesmerised we listened in awe
As he patiently gave us his logic for war
My standing in history must be assured at all cost

Mr Bush from the White House plans his bloody crusade
Like an over strung child playing some computer game
With a dart on the map to guide his next campaign against terror
And imposing democracy and freedom of speech
To those who despise the American dream
While his destitute drown in the toxic remains of New Orleans

And fanatical lunatics driven with hate
Naïve in there faith for a god given fate
Murder the innocent in cowardly ways, what a waste
And the priests and the rabbis all seam to agree
Looking away is the best policy
So it may seem at times they?ve forgotten whom they serve

Yet we let them indulge in their murderous games
Whem electing them in again and again
It?s a shame we all face when we all try to explain to our children
And Jesus is weeping in his lonely domain
Helpless before the blood spilt in his name
?I offered them heaven, but nobody came to join me?

And out in a warzone, on a neglected farm
An infant is lying in his dead mothers arms
His face is the face of the shame we must face as a nation
