lyrics

V1

Brothers and sister, lives are infected
With famine, disaster, hatred and bloodhed
Innocent people, battered and broken
Who could blame them for wanting safety and the right of freedom

Desperate and cornered with only one option
To flee from your home and seek out asylum
Run through the night with just the clothes on your back
Praying to God that the dogs don't attack

Chorus

Sit back, sit back, sit back, sit back and stare
You just sit back
Sit back, sit back, sit back, sit back and stare
You just sit back

V2

The scale of this problem, is hard to imagine
We all wanna help but don't take up action
So you curse and you swear from your chair
And you just, you just sit back and stare

Pre-chorus

You just sit and stare (it's a tragedy)
You don't even care (it's a tragedy)
You just sit and stare (it's a tragedy)
You don't even care

Chorus

Sit back, sit back, sit back, sit back and stare
You just sit back
Sit back, sit back, sit back, sit back and stare
You just sit back

You just sit and stare (it's a tragedy)
You don't even care (it's a tragedy)
You just sit and stare (it's a tragedy)
You don't even care

Album tracks are doomed to the past as a predilection for unplanned musical excursions means history will not be repeated here, son. In the words of the Frank Zappa, “You can't always write a chord ugly enough to say what you want to say, so sometimes you have to rely on a giraffe filled with whipped cream.” ... more
