Grow Up To Blow Up

 

Tell me what's wrong with them now. 
Why's there no peace?
Why do we just irritate them 
Out in the Middle-East?

What will it take to stop them?
We're all so sad.
Is it all these damned religions
That drive people mad?

 

Grow up to blow up, that's all we do.
First you harm them then you arm them.
Hate's a game for fools.
Grow up to blow up, that's all we do.
Are you Christian, are you Muslim
Or are you a Jew?

 

When I come home the TV's
Full of bad news;
Talkin' 'bout the conflagration,
It's the New Order Blues.

We say that they're terrorists.
They say it's US
Next thing that you know they detonate 
A plane, a train, a bus. 

 

Grow up to blow up, that's all we do.
First you harm them then you arm them.
Hate's a game for fools.
Grow up to blow up, that's all we do.
Are you Christian, are you Muslim
Or are you a Jew?
