Where there's an aircraft down

There'll be casualties from some English town

There's always an African war

Meaning one vote, once, once more



In the face of all of this

What troubles do you and I possess?

In the face of all of this

Trouble enough it seems



Down in Afghanistan

They've killed a woman who dressed like a man

A city is under mud

But it's OK, there's no television blood



In the face of all of this

What troubles do you and I possess?

In the face of all of this

Our troubes are easy to resist



Here's the chinese

They do exactly what the please

And the toll is climbing high



What troubles do you and I possess?

In the face of all of this

Troubles I'll now put away
