The War Is Over - Lyrics by Matthew Good Band


Lyrics
A man once told me that life was like a collagehe said there's nothing much to spies like usjust killing time, that's all
& there are spacecraft orbiting the earthguided by 90 year old Russians that haven't heardthe war is over, how do you feel
& how have you been babywell she got married and she had kids
& they fear sex and not the bomb
& the rest is just ad libbed
& me I'm waiting for somethingthat does not comefor something crackfor something to go wrong
I'm inside out & I'd say
This is where we get offthis is where we do anything we want
& this is where I amuse you
A man once told me that life was like a collagehe said the truth is not radio friendly espionagethe war is over, how do you feel
& where have you been babywell we got stuck & we got lostbetween good-bye & the chemical sky
& a nuclear albatrosswhen I sleep, I see rainwhen I'm alone, I am in pain
& everything is not the sameas on the big screen
I'm inside out and I'd saythis is where we get off
