Kathy Mar Lyrics for Song: Marching In The Streets
 Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Kathy Mar
 
 
 
 11517>1982 Kathy Mar
 
 
 
 So they've stopped making speeches and they've started making war
 
 There are plastic pocket calculators tallying the score
 
 And a multitude of gentle hearts are wildly skipping beats
 
 And is this why we all went marching in the streets
 
 
 
 The uniforms go marching by in jets of screaming pain
 
 As they rise into the rockets holding poisons dressed as rain
 
 And a million brazen buglers can no longer sound retreat
 
 And is this why we all went marching in the streets
 
 
 
 Now they've found a way to kill the men and let the buildings stand
 
 And they've blindly put the switches into aging madmens' hands
 
 Ones who dream of war and glory and a thousand mighty feats
 
 And is this why we all went marching in the streets
 
 
 
 Now the children are demanding if we've sold our souls or worse
 
 As we tear their world to splinters for the profits of our purse
 
 As they turn their backs on us the question once again repeats
 
 Is this why we all went marching in the streets
 
 
 
 So you think no more of marching all the protesters are gone
 
 And you've paid the price once asked of you and now the debt is done
 
 Well believe it if you will but if you don't get off your seats
 
 They'll soon have us all out marching in the streets
 
 
 
 We are raising up our voices for the cause of peace again
 
 They're preparing us for war now but they will not tell us when
 
 We must stop them here and now before the final armies meet
 
 Or there'll be no one left for marching in the streets
 
 
 
 And is this why we all went marching in the streets?
