bill white and yewnorker - Same Old Movie, Different War

from Slats in the Bed by Bill White

/

lyrics

Isn't this the scene
Where the old woman cried
Kneeling over the bodies
Of her family who died

And this must be the part
A plane's shot down from ths sky
And the helicoptor blows up
And a lot of people die

I think I'm almost certain
Yes I'm feelin pretty sure
We've all seen way too much
Of this movie before
It's the same old movie
Different war

And there's all the civilians
Lying face down in the gutter
And there's the little child
Looking desperate for her mother

The dead kid by his bicycle
Some tanks all blown apart
There's the bombed out hospital
They've set up ERs in the yard

I think I'm almost certain
Yes I'm feelin pretty sure
We've all seen way too much
Of this movie before
it's the same old movie
Different war

Can we pause for just a second
What is wrong with everyone
Why watch this same old stupid movie
When you know how it will end

I think I'm almost certain
Yes I'm feelin pretty sure
We've all seen way too much
Of this movie before
It's the same old movie
Different war
