Song Lyrics

I never shot anybody, but I've seen how it's done
Saw a soldier on the TV shoot a little kid for fun

Put him on his knees, put a bullet through his head
Blood on the grass, the little kid lies dead

I've seen how it's done
I've seen how it's done
That was only one war for everyone
Blood of the gun
I've seen how it's done

I never started a war, but I've seen how it's done
Put your president on the TV
He says we'll blow them all to Kingdom Come, Thy will be done!

He's better than me, he's running the USA
Spending money on bombs, people starve every day

I've seen how it's done
I've seen how it's done
That was only one war for everyone
That's blood of the gun
I've seen how it's done

That's not the way it should be
That's not the way at all
I've made some good friends
I know how that's done
Stretch out your hand and use it, brother
Use it, brother!

When I won wars, I fought some genocide hungry battles
Everybody's sinking high, everybody's to stay cool

I've seen how it's done
I've seen how it's done
That was only one war for everyone
Blood of the gun
I've seen how it's done

Gotta talk about peace and love
All you gotta do is say it out loud
Gotta talk about peace and love
All you do is say it out loud

I've seen how it's done
