Tigers

[Verse 1] All they want is to make like tigers Stripping the sense and bleeding the blameless dry And the story that reads us a liar? I'll show you the stripes I earned the shameful way I can tell you it's only bravado To follow the cause you lost your ideals to But in turning this boy into soldier Objection and conscience is the weakest root [Chorus] Who's been sleeping in my bed? I wanna blow your house down Who's been sleeping in my bed? I'm gonna blow your house down Who's been sleeping in my bed? I wanna blow your house down Who's been sleeping in my bed? I'm gonna blow your house down Who's been sleeping in my bed? I wanna blow your house down Who's been sleeping in my bed? I'm gonna blow your house down [Verse 2] And they're running us down into battle Melting the hearts and breaking the hopes of men And the stars and stripes we lay under Call back the bullets they fire that bear our names They'll sell you the shortcuts of thinking To borrow the cause they need you to claim to And they'll keep all the chips on your shoulders Objection and conscience stays the purest truth [Chorus] Who's been sleeping in my bed? I wanna blow your house down Who's been sleeping in my bed? I'm gonna blow your house down Who's been sleeping in my bed? I wanna blow your house down Who's been sleeping in my bed? I'm gonna blow your house down Who's been sleeping in my bed? I wanna blow your house down Who's been sleeping in my bed? I'm gonna blow your house down [Verse 3] There's a price for the graves of the unknown (I tell you it's only bravado) Just on the sands not on your hands - that's all (To follow the cause you sold your ideals to) And the heroes that blast to your four walls (But in turning this boy into soldier) They only peel and fade as your children fall (Objection and conscience is the only root) As your children fall
