[Verse 1]

Tell me why you came here

Squatting around a Game Gear

Like Sega never died

We met inside a war-zone

You said, "Let's fuck the ozone"

But boy, that hole's too wide

You goose-step 'round the garden

Singing, "Sap I bleed is hardening

No tree can break my stoic stride

I'm as giddy as a baby in a centrifuge

It's hard"

[Chorus]

And we can argue that our planet's best

Don't ring your brother, 'cause there's no contest

I'm sure you'll make a decent

Father, there's a world war coming in

Oh, the seasons I've been worrying

[Verse 2]

You drown a fly and murmur

"The Vatican was firmer

When I was back in school

And we used spray-tan in the trenches

Now, the problem with the French is how

They won't admit they're fools

And you never tell me anything

You never tell me anything

I can't remember dates and times

And I'm sorry for the years I was a shipwreck, boy

It's hard"

[Chorus]

I want to tell you that it means so much

I want to tell you that it means so much

I'm sure you'll make a decent

Father, there's a world war coming in

Oh, the years that I've been worrying

Oh, I'd rather dash myself upon the rocks

Than see you waste away your days with clocks

In every corner of your parents'

Home

And there's no world war coming in

All the reasons I've been worrying

Just forget the parts you'll never need

All these things I'll tell you when you wake up

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]

Make a child, make a child, make a forest

Make a child, make a child, make a forest

Make a child, a child, a forest

Make a child, a child, a forest

Make a child, make a child, make a forest

Make a child, a child, make a forest

Make a child, make a child, make a forest

Make a child, make a child, make a forest

Make a child, make a child, make a forest
