I'll start an army I've got some guns
hidden 'neath the floorboards
with three righteous sons
who've never seen peace in this land
and sleep soundly on pillows of bags made of sand

a traitor's heart freckled with pieces of lead
been living it sallow and mostly dead
peacekeepers fighting and a U.N decree
life's so expensive and dying is free

there's nothing that stands for me in this world
so I've got to fight this war

but just how the sun follows the moon
around we spin on this floating balloon

well I'll start a camp in the monument square
we'll put all our heads up in the air for a prayer
but the police are coming
just look at that wall
they've got tear gas and rubber bullets
what's the truth?
it's hard to say, just keep your head down kid
and walk away

because there's nothing that stands for us in this world
so we've got to fight this war

and just how the sun follows the moon
around we spin on this floating balloon

I'll start a revolution the media can feast
because my name is trending
he'll shoot out his tweets
cause someone is hiding way up high
in a hundred floor high-rise up in the sky
well sir take a penny and drop it to earth
give us something for all that we're worth

before I take an elevator up to that room
shoot out the ceiling and up over the moon
and just how the sun will follow us too
around we spin on this floating balloon
