We sleep in peace and comfort
We eat the fatted calf
We have our dinner parties
Toast to health and have a laugh
We drink the blood of martyrs
Ordered by carafe
We don't count up the carnage
We just don't do the math...

On the other side of paradise
On the outskirts of our lawns
There are people dying
While we stretch and yawn
We feel we've won the chess game
Cuz we've captured a spare pawn
But the devil's out there laughin'
And has been all along...

How can we sit and watch TV
That information liar!
And while We lie there entertained
Our mattress is on fire
We watch our bridges burning
And dance around the pyre!
Asked the piper to play us
Whatever we desire

But don't you know - we had our show
Now payment is required
