Where there's an aircraft down
There'll be casualties from some English town
There's always an African war
Meaning one vote, once, once more

In the face of all of this
What troubles do you and I possess?
In the face of all of this
Trouble enough it seems

Down in Afghanistan
They've killed a woman who dressed like a man
A city is under mud
But it's OK, there's no television blood

In the face of all of this
What troubles do you and I possess?
In the face of all of this
Our troubes are easy to resist

Here's the chinese
They do exactly what the please
And the toll is climbing high

What troubles do you and I possess?
In the face of all of this
Troubles I'll now put away
