Swinging The Chain lyrics

It's against my uniform

To be a civil judge

All the songs are history now

`Bout rock stars and their grudge

Let us cast our minds back

To thirty years or more

You took up all the vandals

Will Hitler beat `em all?

And we're sad and sorry

Really sorry that it happened that way

Yes we're sad and sorry

But why'd you have to treat us that way?

Compare ourselves with others

And cover them in sin

Oh, God what a terrible

A terrible state we're in

There must be some way out of here

A comprimise that's right

If we cannot work it out

We're gonna have to fight

Yes we're sad and sorry

Really sorry that it happened that way

Yes we're sad and sorry

We cannot go on in those days

I'm talking about my brothers

Yeah, I'm talking `bout sisters as well

I wish you good luck

Good luck!

Oh, but the world's still on fire

Chain the hope you take on, liar

This fire

We're on fire, we're on fire, yeah
