Story behind the song

This was just a way for me to deal with my feelings regarding the war. It has allowed me to express my opinions, and move on...

Lyrics

TONY BLAIRE KEPT TELLING ME 
WE HAD TO FIGHT THAT WAR TO KEEP THIS PEACE 
BUT IT DON'T SEEM TO MAKE NO COMMON SENSE 
AND IT DIDN'T SEEM TO HELP THE FUTURE TENSE 

WHEN ONE BY ONE OUR CHILDRENS GO AND 
FIGHT FOR A WAR THAT WE DON'T WANT AND 
WE'RE NOT QUITE SURE WHAT WE'RE FIGHTING FOR BUT 
WE'RE ALL QUITE SURE THAT IT WONT BE LONG BEFORE 

WHAT HAPPENED IN THE PAST NEVER HAPPENED AGAIN AND 
WHAT WE DONE IN THE PAST WE NEVER DID AGAIN AND 
THIS GOD DAMD WAR NEVER EVER BEGAN CAUSE ITS THE 
SAME OLD WAR WITH THE SAME OLD ENDINGS NOW 

WE GOTTA KEEP THE PEACE 
ITS UP TO YOU AND ME 
TO TRY TO KEEP THE PEACE 
              

ALASTAIRE CAMPBELL GONNA SPIN ANOTHER DRAFT 
WITH DOUBTS IN THEIR MINDS AND A GUN IN OUR HANDS 
AND OH YES THEY SAY WE'RE GONNA TAKE A STAND 
AND OH YES THEY SAY THAT WE GOT IT ALL PLANNED 

BUT SOMEHOW IM LEFT IN DOUBTS AGAIN 
AND ONCE AGAIN I NEED A HELPING HAND TO SEE 
ALL THE TRUTH THROUGH ALL THE LIES 
AND TO HELP ME SEE AND TO REALISE 

WHATS GOIN ON 
WE DIDN'T KEEP THE PEACE 
ITS UP TO YOU AND ME 
TO TRY TO KEEP THE PEACE ON ELECTION DAY 
     

AND NEXT JEFF HOON WE GOT ON QUESTION TIME 
ANOTHER LABOUR LAWYER SPINNING TOO MANY LIES 
AND THOSE BOMBS KEEP DROPPING ON SO MANY LIVES 
LIKE THE ONES THEY WOULDN'T BANN FOR PRINCESS DI 

AND THE GREEDY CO-ALITIONS WITH ITS OILY EYES 
AND ALL THE LABOUR LAWYER SPIN JUST CANNOT HIDE 
NOW WE KNOW THERES NO WMD TO FIND 
AND STILL I KEEP HEARING THOSE SAME OLD LIES AGAIN 

WHEN WILL IT END 
WHERES ALL THE PEACE 
ITS UP TO YOU AND ME WE GOTTA HAVE OUR SAY 
ON ELECTION DAY 
                            

NOW DOCTOR KELLYS LOSS WAS A POLITICAL MISTAKE 
WITH A LEAK TOO MUCH THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO MAKE 
AND ALL THE GOVERNMENT DID WAS NOT TO GIVE A NAME 
AND THE WORLD MOVED ON FROM THE 45 CLAIM 

AND WE STOOD AND WATCHED A HUMBLE FAMILY MAN 
WHILE REPRESENTING HIS COUNTRY WOULDN'T TAKE A STAND 
AND THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MADE HIM OUT AS CHAFF 
AND I DIDNT SEE A SINGLE POLITICIAN AROUND 

AND THE NUMBER 10 SPINNING JUST LET HIM DOWN 
AND THOSE DAMD LABOUR LAWYERS WERE NO-WHERE TO BE FOUND 
AND THE PRESS AND PEPARATSI DROPPED IN ON HIS TOWN 
AND I STILL COULDNT SEE A POLITICIAN AROUND HIM 
NOOOO, 

CAUSE HE WAS ON HIS OWN 
TRYNA KEEP THE PEACE 
FOR THE LIKES OF YOU AND ME SO DON'T FORGET HIS NAME 
ON ELECTION DAY 
 

WE GOT SO MANY KIDS GOIN OUT TO WAR 
AND CASUALTIES FOR MOTHERS TO BE CRYING FOR 
I DON'T WANT MY SON TO GO AND FIGHT THAT WAR 
I DON'T WANT MY DAUGHTER FIGHTING THAT WAR 

IT DON'T SEEM RIGHT TO LET THEM GO AND FIGHT 
AND ITS NOT OK TO ME NO WAY 
AND I DON'T THINK I CAN SIT BACK AND TAKE NO MORE 
AND I DON'T THINK THAT I CAN HUSH AND NOT BE HEARD NO MORE 

AND IF I HAVE TO SHOUT, JUST TO BE HEARD 
I'M GONNA MAKE THEM HEAR ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW 
AND IF I THINK ITS NOT WORKING AND IT DOESN'T CHANGE 
I'M GONNA MAKE MY VOICE COUNT ON ELECTION DAY 

IM GONNA TRY TO KEEP 
TRY TO KEEP THE PEACE 
ITS UP TO YOU AND ME WE GOTTA HAVE OUR SAY 
ON ELECTION DAY 
                    

I TAKE A LOOK AT ALL THE NEWS ON 24 TODAY 
AND THE TSUNAMI DISASTER SEEMS A WORLD AWAY 
BUT THE COMPASION OF THE PEOPLE AS THEY ALL DONATE 
AHEAD OF POLITICIANS WHILE ALL DEBATE
