Let's have a w*r
Just me and you
I will wear red
You can wear blue
I'll fly a banner
You'll wear a crown
And we’ll march to the center
Of every town
The drums will begin
That precipitous noise
You'll blow kisses to girls
I'll wave to the boys
You'll mount your steed
I'll ready my mare
There'll be stars in your eyes
And jewels in my hair
Rings on our fingers
Swords at our backs
Lies at my teeth
Tears in your sack
But don't call me radical
Please
It's only practical
See
I'm cold
And you’re freezing
I can't stand you breathing
So shallow
So slow
I won't watch you go
You bring the oil
And I'll bring the flame
I'll burn down this building
All in your name
Not cause I'm right
And not cause you're wrong
Not cause we need somewhere
Not to belong
But I'm cold and you're freezing
And we can't pay the bills
And we might need some light
To make sure that we’re real
So don't call me radical
Please
It’s only practical
See
I'm cold
And you're freezing
I can't stand you breathing
So shallow
So slow
I won't watch you go
I'll keep a noose
In my pocket
Just in case
You don't want me around
I'll keep my bones
Thin and brittle
Just in case
All the buildings fall down
If the time comes
It comes
If it doesn't
I'm ready
My eyes are both dry
And my fingers are steady
So don't call me radical
Please
It's only practical
See
I'm cold
And you're freezing
I can't stand you breathing
So shallow
So slow
I won't watch you go
I left you in winter
Cause your hands were too cold
I found you in summer
But I was too old
The city was quiet
Except for the bell
Singing me secrets
I could never tell
The road was too dark
And the journey too long
So I sat in the dirt
And I wrote you this song
But don't call me radical
Please
It's only practical
See
Cause I'm cold
And you’re freezing
No I can't stand you breathing
So shallow
So slow
I won't watch you go
