They Were Wrong

"Here son watch the dog eat dog"

He spoke with eyes of the stiffest blue

He peeled my fists, said "let it go"

Saying "hope like that and you'll never grow"

I'll go dancing with disease, darling please

They are wrong

I'll go swinging, singing peace, darling please

They are wrong,

I say they been here for too long - they are wrong,

They are wrong

So, to my child not yet born

I've just one world of which to warn

It lives in the mouths of choking dreams

Sickness like that you've never seen

I'll go dancing with disease, darling please

They are wrong

I'll go swinging, singing peace, darling please

They are wrong,

I say they been here for too long - they are wrong,

They are wrong
