lyrics

They want peace
And they don't wanna wait another day
Sweet release
And they don't need to find someone to blame
They don't need this pressure
They don't want this pain
Another guilty consumer only out to gain

Hear them singing on the radio
About the war that should've ended twenty years ago
See them begging on a TV screen
For an end to all the suffering and hate they've seen
Mhmm

But we will drive our cars and burn our oil
Squeeze the grain from the sickly soil
And when there's nothing left to spoil
We'll say: 'It just has to be that way'

Please ourselves – is that all we know how to do?
I'm to blame, cos I'm a guilty consumer too
And there's a hidden agenda no one likes to see
So many guilty pretenders like you and me
Hear them talking on the radio
About the cars and the cash and the fancy clothes
See them laughing on a TV screen
About the gold and the jewels and the limousines

But we will drive our cars and burn our oil
Squeeze the grain from the sickly soil
And when there's nothing left to spoil
We'll say 'It just has to be that way
Don't you know? It just has to be that way'

Now that we know we've gotta make a change
Doesn't all of this feel strange?
Owning up and changing our old ways
Because it doesn't have to be this way
