The Troubles

THE TROUBLES THE TROUBLES
THEY'RE ALL THE SAME
IT'S BROTHER AGAINST BROTHER
AND BOTH ARE TO BLAME
IT'S A COLOR OR A CLASS
OR ANY FIGHT IN GOD'S NAME
THE TROUBLES THE TROUBLES
THE TROUBLES ARE ALL THE SAME

ONE SIDE FOR THE NORTH ONE SIDE FOR THE SOUTH
ALL THE REASON THEY NEED FOR WHAT THE KILLINGS ABOUT
WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE WHAT SIDE YOU'RE ON
WHEN SOMEBODY'S DONE SOMEBODY WRONG TOO LONG

THE BLUE AND THE GREY AND THE BLACK AND THE WHITE
ALL SEEING SO RED THAT THEY WON'T SEE THE LIGHT
THEY KEEP MAKING WAR TO TRY TO MAKE PEACE
SO IT GOES ON AND ON AND IT NEVER WILL CEASE
