Waves

You can't fight a war with nobody to fight back
 But if we get to digging to the bottom of the stack
 We'll sell it to the youth, and you never know, maybe
 You'll get back home, and you'll see your baby, oh
 We'll just act like we care
 All we're needing is a reason
 It don't need to be clear
 Singing songs to the news
 It can play to their fears
 Someone's gotta die, and you don't have to love him
 But the military's still got more in its budget, oh
 We always need more next year
 No one cares about the waves
 At the bottom of the ocean
 And at the bottom of the ocean
 It's always blue
 No one will remember
 'Cause nothing lasts forever
 And everybody's looking
 For somebody to use
 When you don't bring them home and the war hasn't ended
 There's still money there and that money needs spending
 The powers that be, we gotta do what we do
 If they never know it then they'll never feel used, oh
 Like I often do
 To all the pretty girls out there looking for heartache
 Crying, "All I wanted is to be your baby"
 And all the pretty girls out there living with heartache
 Crying 'cause they're never gonna see their baby, oh
 We just act like we care
 No one cares about the waves
 At the bottom of the ocean
 And at the bottom of the ocean
 It's always blue
 No one will remember
 'Cause nothing lasts forever
 And everybody's looking
 For somebody to use
 No one will remember
 'Cause nothing lasts forever
 The world is always changing
 And it's always blue
 And it's always blue
