Cenotaph by The Alarm Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I have built an air raid shelter
Got some food and clothes
Radiation suit for the fall out
And a bullet just in case

[Pre-Chorus]
I hope and pray the God of love is on my side

[Chorus]
There's talk of war in the air this morning
They're ringing bells in the house of Lords
Lay your wreath at the cenotaph
If you want peace, prepare for war, war

[Verse 2]
I've got a white flag of surrender
And a pick and a spade
I've got some morphine for the pain
And a white cross for the grave
[Pre-Chorus]
As I wait for the God of peace
To save

[Chorus]
There's talk of war in the air this morning
They're ringing bells in the house of Lords
Lay your wreath at the cenotaph
If you want peace, prepare for war, war

[Bridge]
As I pray
For the God of love
To heal

[Chorus]
There's talk of building a wall around us
To save us from the infidel
They're folding flags in cemetries
If you want peace, prepare for war, war

[Bridge]
I prepare for the ending
And the time that is left
I've made my will and testament
Through the blood, I'll come again
[Pre-Chorus]
As I walk with the God of grace
By my side

[Chorus]
There's talk of war in the air this morning
They're ringing bells in the house of Lords
Lay your wreath at the cenotaph
And if you want peace, prepare for war
If you want peace, prepare for war, war
War, war
If you want peace, prepare for war
Lay your wreath at the cenotaph
Get ready, get ready for war
If you want peace, prepare for war
If you want peace, prepare for war
