(ian hunter)      The spirit of war is all around us   'n' everybody knows somethin's goin' on      Fasten your seat belts - say goodbye to your mothers   Cos everybody knows somethin's goin' on      Nuclear missiles - cover to cover   Everybody knows somethin's goin' on      The world is a subway - all the leaders are muggers   'n' everybody knows somethin's goin' on      Well I say   Roll up to the party - welcome to the show   We'll make you live in fear - then we'll make you disappear   Somethin's goin' on 'n' everybody knows      What you got - what you got   Everybody knows somethin's goin' on   Most people got nothin' - a few got the lot   'n' everybody knows - it's still goin' on      Well I say   Roll up to the circus - welcome to death row   Just do what we say - then we'll blow you all away   Somethin's goin' on 'n' everybody knows      What about hunger... are they just another number?    We're all an endangered species   'n' everybody knows - it's still goin' on      Well I say   Welcome to thanksgiving - what we reap is what we sow   We'll watch you die in vain from the safety of our plane   Somethin's goin' on 'n' everybody knows
