Waves

[Verse 1]

You can't fight a war with nobody to fight back

But if we get to digging to the bottom of the stack

We'll sell it to the youth and you never know, maybe

You'll get back home and you'll see your baby, oh-oh

We'll just act like we care

All we're needing is a reason, it don't need to be clear

Singing songs to the news, it can play to their fears

Someone's got to die and you don't have to love it

But the military's, still, got more in its budget, oh-oh

We always need more next year

[Chorus]

No one cares about the waves at the bottom of the ocean

And at the bottom of the ocean it's always blue

No one will remember 'cause nothing lasts forever

And everybody's looking for somebody to use

[Verse 2]

When you don't bring them home and the war hasn't ended

There's still money there and that money needs spending

The powers that be, we got to do what we do

If they never know it then they'll never feel used, oh-oh-oh

Like I often do

To all the pretty girls out there looking for heartache

Crying, "All I wanted is to be your baby"

And all the pretty girls out there living with heartache

Crying 'cause they're never gonna see their baby, oh-oh

We just act like we care

[Chorus]

No one cares about the waves at the bottom of the ocean

And at the bottom of the ocean it's always blue

No one will remember 'cause nothing lasts forever

And everybody's looking for somebody to use

[Bridge]

No one will remember 'cause nothing lasts forever

The world is always changing and it's always blue

And it's always blue

[Instrumental Outro]
