No Celebrations

When the party starts When the ships have come in Will you think of the blood and the tears And the broken hearts of the people weeping in this land For there's loose and grins There'll be no celebrating There'll be no party pies I know that grieving, this spite in your lungs There'll be no birthday songs There'll be no party games And needed no wrong you know you're to blame Many blown out the candles and make a wish When you think of the people then When you cut up the cake and set it up on a dish Just like you did with the drinks There will be no celebrating There'll be no party pies I know you're breathing this fast with your lungs There'll be no birthday songs There'll be no party again At midday oh no When you know you're to blame When you raise your glasses and make a toast When the ships slowly go where they sail Where you think of the mothers thirsty boast of there children who died in your jail There'll be no celebrating There'll be no party pies And no decorating this house with their lives There'll be no birthday songs There'll be no party games Admit that you're wrong and you're to blame So have a good time when the party's commenced Drink and eat up your fill Cause in front you'll be having an out expense But when will you pay the dues There'll be no celebrating There'll be no party pies And no decorating this house where they lies There'll be no birthday songs There'll be no party games Admit that you're wrong and you're to blame
