Butter or Bombs by The Ex (Punk Band) Lyrics
They ask what we want:
"Butter or bombs?"
And how they laugh
When someone
Dares to mumble
That butter would be better
Gee aren't we silly
We're just thinking with our belly
How can there be butter
When we don't have bombs?
To protect the cows
And how can the grass grow
When we don't defend it
So once again they ask:
"What do you want
Butter or bombs?
The choice is yours"
Of course
They ask what we want:
"Butter or bombs?
The choice is yours"
Of course! Of course!
I tried to tell you
But you're not home
In fact it seems
You're never home
The lights are on
But you're not there
Are you deaf
Or don't you care
I tried to call
I know you're home
Hey, cut your wrists
But not the phone
They ask what we want:
"Butter or bombs?
The choice is yours"
Of course! Of course!
The lights are on
But you're not there
Are you deaf
Or don't you care
I tried to call
I know you're home
Hey, cut your wrists
But not the phone
"Butter or bombs?"
And how they laugh
When someone
Dares to mumble
That butter would be better
Gee aren't we silly
We're just thinking with our belly
How can there be butter
When we don't have bombs?
To protect the cows
And how can the grass grow
When we don't defend it
So once again they ask:
"What do you want
Butter or bombs?
The choice is yours"
Of course
They ask what we want:
"Butter or bombs?
The choice is yours"
Of course! Of course!
I tried to tell you
But you're not home
In fact it seems
You're never home
The lights are on
But you're not there
Are you deaf
Or don't you care
I tried to call
I know you're home
Hey, cut your wrists
But not the phone
They ask what we want:
"Butter or bombs?
The choice is yours"
Of course! Of course!
The lights are on
But you're not there
Are you deaf
Or don't you care
I tried to call
I know you're home
Hey, cut your wrists
But not the phone
