The Beautiful Occupation lyrics

Don't just stand there

Watching it happening

I can't stand it

Don't feel it

Something telling me

I don't wanna go out this way

But have a nice day, then...

Read it in the headlines,

Watch it on the TV

Put it in the back ground

Stick it in the bag, stick it in the bag

For the beautiful occupation

The beautiful occupation

You don't need an invitation

To drop in upon a nation

I'm too cynical

I'm just sitting here

I'm just wasting my time

Half a million

Civilians gonna to die today

But look the wrong way, then...

Read it in the headlines,

Watch it on the TV

Put it in the back ground

Stick it in the bag, stick it in the bag

For the beautiful occupation

The beautiful occupation

You don't need an invitation

To drop in upon a nation

Don't just stand there

Watching it happening

I can't stand it

Don't feel it

Something telling me

I don't wanna go out this way

But have a nice day, then...

Read it in the headlines,

Watch it on the TV

Put it in the back ground

Stick it in the bag, stick it in the bag

For the beautiful occupation

The beautiful occupation

You don't need an invitation

To drop in upon a nation

The beautiful occupation

The beautiful occupation

So much for an intervention

Don't call the United Nations
