Swamper Hear The Children Cry Lyrics

How long has it been, how long can it go
How long can we pretend
People being killed, children dying young,
I wish that it would end

It's there in front of me, everyday I watch tv
The pain, the blood, the tears
And I'm just sitting here, sipping on my glass of beer
Thinking there's nothing to fear, cause it's

One bomb, two bombs, there's no place to run
Hear the children cry
One bomb, two bombs, another war that's never won
Hear the children cry

People marching carrying signs, people watching wondering why
And still others will pray
Do they think they can, change the heart inside a man
Or maybe there's no heart to change, and it's

One bomb, two bombs, one more to be sure
Hear the children cry
One bomb, two bombs, someone's insane cure
Hear the children cry

Everyday thousands die, the starving and oppressed
Who can take the blame
A million dollars in just one minute
Are spent each year to make the bombs, just to kill the rest, and it's

One bomb, two bombs, one more just for fun
Hear the children cry
One bomb, two bombs, another war that's never won
Hear the children cry

One bomb, two bombs, there's no place to run
Hear the children cry
One bomb, two bombs, another war that's never won
Hear the children cry

How long has it been, how long can it go
How I wish it would end
