Start a War lyrics

We expected something, something better than before

We expected something more

Do you really think you can just put it in a safe

Behind a painting, lock it up and leave?

Do you really think you can just put it in a safe

Behind a painting, lock it up and leave?

Walk away now and you're gonna start a war

Whatever went away, I'll get it over now

I'll get money, I'll get funny again

Whatever went away, I'll get it over now

I'll get money, I'll get funny again

Walk away now and you're gonna start a war

We expected something, something better than before

We expected something more

You were always weird but I never had to hold you

By the edges, like I do now

We were always weird but I never had to hold you

By the edges, like I do now

Walk away now and you're gonna start a war

Whatever went away, I'll get it over now

I'll get money, I'll get funny again

Whatever went away, I'll get it over now

I'll get money, I'll get funny again

Walk away now and you're gonna start a war

Walk away now and you're gonna start a war
