  • Dutch kids huff balloons in the parking lot
    The Golden Arches illuminate the business park
    I eat myself to death, feed the corporate machine
    I watch the movies, recite every line and scene
    God bless America and all of its allies
    I'm not the first to live with wool over my eyes

    I am so blissfully unaware of everything
    Kids in Gaza are bombed and I'm just out of it
    The tensions of the world are rising higher
    We're probably due another war with all this ire
    I'm not smart enough to change a thing
    I have no answers, only questions, don't you ask a thing

    All the silver tongued suits and cartoons that rule my world
    Are saying it's a high time for hypersonic missiles
    When the bombs drop darlin' can you say that you've lived your life
    Oh, this is a high time for hypersonic missiles

    Cities lie like tumors all across the world
    A cancer eating mankind hidden in our blindside
    They say I'm a nihilist
    'Cause I can't see any decent rhyme or reason
    For the life of you and me
    But I believe in what I'm feeling
    And I'm firing for you
    This world is gonna end
    But 'til then, I'll give you everything I have
    I'll give you everything I have

    Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
    Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
    Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
    Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
    Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
    Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh (come on)

    All the silver tongued suits and cartoons that rule my world
    Are saying it's a high time for hypersonic missiles
    When the bombs drop darlin' can you say that you've lived your life
    Oh, this is a high time for hypersonic missiles
    They all do the same, only their names change honey
    You can join their club if you're born in to money
    It's a high time for hypersonic missiles
    You know this is a high time for hypersonic missiles
    You know this is a high time for hypersonic missiles
    Oh, this is a high time for hypersonic missiles Writer/s: Sam Fender
