Lyrics

Let's Have A War

[Chorus]

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

[Verse 1]

Let's have a war

So you can go and die

Let's have a war

We could all use the money

Let's have a war

We need the space

Let's have a war

Clean out this place

[Pre-Chorus]

It already started in the city

Suburbia will be just as easy

[Chorus]

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

[Verse 2]

Let's have a war

Jack up the Dow Jones

Let's have a war

It can start in New Jersey

Let's have a war

Blame it on the middle-class

Let's have a war

We're like rats in a cage

[Pre-Chorus]

It already started in the city

Suburbia will be just as easy

[Chorus]

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

[Verse 3]

Let's have a war

Sell the rights to the networks

Let's have a war

Have our wallets get fat like last time

Let's have a war

Give guns to the queers

Let's have a war

The enemy is within

[Pre-Chorus]

It already started in the city

Suburbia will be just as easy

[Chorus]

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many

There's too many of us

There's too many of us

There's too many

There's too many of us

There's too many of us

There's too many

There's too many of us

There's too many of us

There's too many

There's too many of us

There's too many of us

There's too many

There's so many of us

There's so many of us

There's so many
