Let's drag the moon from the sky 
Hold her down and silence her cries 
She knows us, has heard all our lies 
She knows we're to be despised 

Dig a grave and put some people in 
Shoot them dead, then fill it in 
With our little banners and our little drums 
Nothing changes, but I'm told that it's fun 

In the name of the people or in the name of God 
Let's throw someone to the mercy of the mob 
Let their blood be washed away by the rain 
When the sun comes up we can do it all again 

Dig a grave, and put some people in 
Shoot them dead then fill it in 
With our little uniforms and our little guns 
Nothing will change, but I'm told that it's fun
