Ceasefire

A husband and wife and a whore
BANG BANG
A family of five maybe four
BANG BANG
Everyone sing till you’re sore
BANG BANG
There’s no such thing as civil war
BANG BANG
It’s a license to kill
The old and the ill
The skilled and unskilled
But if you desire
We could pull down the wire
If you’d only ceasefire
The uncle, the aunt and the niece
BANG BANG
The long and the short and obese
BANG BANG
The vicar, the friar and the priest
BANG BANG
All pray for the fire to cease
BANG BANG
It’s a license to kill
The old and the ill
The skilled and unskilled
But if you desire
We could pull down the wire
If you’d only ceasefire
Johnny won’t be marching home
No such person, no such zone
But if you desire
We could pull down the wire
If you’d only ceasefire
