War Buddies Lyrics

Artist: Harvey Danger (Buy Harvey Danger CDs)
Album: Little By Little

Let's be war buddies
Waist deep in big money side by side
I'd be the atheist in your foxhole, anytime

Let's be friendly fire
Body count's a mountain on a bed of barbed wire, coldly stashed
As soon as the morning light has broken, then we attack
If nobody tries too hard to kill you

I got your back across the desert
Back to brave the burning sand
Back to question every effort
Back to challenge your command
If you got guns, well, now's the time for sticking
Resistance is already forming
The second shot won't be a warning

Let's be collateral damage
Looking down your nose like it's the best you can manage just to stand
Indignity after indignation
The threat of a hostile occupation
The better to form a sovereign nation
Here's the plan:

That every man who disagrees
Be roughly brought down to his knees
Be starved to death and made to freeze
And sentenced to the Gulag
If you got guns, well, now's the time for sticking
Resistance is already forming
The second shot won't be a warning

When the tanks roll into Warsaw, will I find you at the front
Singing into a tape recorder, shouldering the brunt of the attack?
Has it come to that?
Has it come to that?
Has it come to that?
Has it come to that?
