The War Came Home Tonight Lyrics - Harper Roy

Left right left right 

The war came home tonight 

Set alight by satellite 

Drenched in tracer bullet bright 

Left right left right 

The newsmen stir their appetite 

Camera zooming every goof 

Shooting ratings bullet proof 

Desperate to generate 

A crisis to manipulate 

You'll wonder where the country went 

In the target rich environment 

Left right left right 

The corner of the room's alight 

With images of pure uptight 

To keep the voyeurs glued all night 

You'll wonder... 

Whose side dog is on 

In the golden age of weapon 

Wrong right wrong right 

Death comes cruising through in spite 

To give cold martyrs back their sight 

As like as if this black was white 

'Dark star' bombs will feed us 

With bulletproof newsreaders 

Read all about it - next 

Turn to the tv - text 

Left right left right 

The war came home tonight 

Set alight by satellite etc
