Conflict Lyrics - There Must Be Another Way: The Singles - Conflict

Looking for an answer to end all the violence 

But you'll find no solutions behind the white paper 

Searching for a way to break down that fence 

Do you really believe in this ludicrous caper? 

Mountbatten murdered - a rebel gunman's been shot dead 

"They're all murdering bastards" - or was that something that I read? 

Well, whatever - it's just the same -death, destruction, violence and pain 

This side, that side, that side, this side 

What side? Any side. You can't side me 

That side, this side, this side, that side 

What side? Any side. You can't side me 

Where could it end? What could the outcome be? 

One thing's for sure there'll be a lot more corpses before the Government can see 

A lot more screaming bullets. A lot more children dead 

And a lot more 'Bloody Sundays' all painted in red 

A lot more pointless talks and a lot more death walks 

A whole lot more of whose tribe should rule 

The squaddies on the corner. The gunman's on the roof 

Who's the real terrorist? Well don't look to the media for your proof 

The British Empire ain't what it used to be, mate! 

And it's a bit late to try and make it great 

So, what's the point in fighting out there? 

British Constitution on a land's fate 

The 'Vengill' computer sums it all up 

It's just packed with reasons to cut people's lives up 

Well whatever, it's just the same 

Death, destruction, violence and pain 

I see no point in deciding 

Because I won't fight for troops in Ireland 

I won't shoot the IRA dead 

And I won't smash no bastard's head 

Because I don't want to die 

Do you want to die? 

This side, that side, that side, this side 

Right side, wrong side. Can't side me 

This side, that side, that side, this side 

What side? Your side. Can't side me
