**Lyrics**

ach nation used to provide its country with security

with factories providing arms for their country

Now multinational companies compete in the arms trade

to serve any customer, maximising the money to be made

So just as farms compete to provide fruit for other countries

so people can live to enjoy the taste of nature

National warehouses compete to provide arms around the world

to aid death

and all hell unfolds.

Our gracious queen

should grasp her crown

and take a good fucking swing at Blair and Brown

for leading her countries to illegal warfare

and trying to pass it off that we're doing 'cause we care.

Now pre-emptive wars are a redemptive cause

I've never heard such nonsense under international laws

We think we have the right to enforce democracy

when we're weakening ours everyday

What hypocrisy.

We'll be together against this

We'll be forever against this

We'll be together against this

We'll be forever against this

Fuck man

I just woke up to a land where killing is part of every day

and every mind in this intelligent species

is then blinded into the battlefield

like it's natural for us to break instead of build

Unities intrinsic the only cause worth fighting for,

all religions, colours and creeds

Now we are the world and we are the people

We are the world and we are the people

and we will be heard.

We'll be together against this

We'll be forever against this

We'll be together against this

We'll be forever against this

We'll be together against this

We'll be forever against this

We'll be together against this

We'll be forever against this

We'll be together against this

We'll be forever against this

We'll be together against this

We'll be forever against this

I personally don't believe that there is anybody on this earth that does *not* want peace. However, as long as there are separate countries, government types, and ideologies- there will be strife. When there is strife people will push to have their way become the dominant way, and push will always come to shove, leading to hostilities.For world peace there can only be one banner for people to be under, and that means one government, one land, one people- thus unity is inherently forced. But, for example, democracy, communism, monarchy, and other governments clawing for control, with none of them showing signs of real change (Russia's "democracy" is incredibly corrupted and China is still ruled by a Communist party for examples), unity is looking far out of everyone's reach.The quickest way for world peace is, sadly, through war. If one side were to dominate the rest of the earth then there would be nothing left to fight for, everyone would be united, forcefully. In time a longstanding peace would emerge but the cost would be extremely high.Sorry to get all political, just posted that for the disillusioned people who think "If America just stops sending its troops to other countries there would be world peace." or anything along those ignorant lines.

I think it would sound perfect if instead of "never heard such nonsense under international laws" Roughton said in his southern accent "I've never heard such bollocks under international laws" :D

And this is still relevant from 8 months ago! I think they'd better rethink their decision on this haha.

I don't usually have swearing in my posts, but when I do this song is awesome.As much as it sucks seeing corporations leading our corrupt governments it's songs like these that remind me that no matter how much they try to push us down, take away our civil liberties and shut us up they will never be able to hold on to their power forever. Their warmongering is like cancer, it might come naturally to them but it's an abomination of nature.-----------------------------------Each nation used to provide its country with securitywith factories providing arms for their countryNow multinational companies compete in the arms tradeto serve any customer, maximising the money to be madeSo just as farms compete to provide fruit for other countriesso people can live to enjoy the taste of natureNational warehouses compete to provide arms around the worldto aid deathand all hell unfolds.Our gracious queenshould grasp her crownand take a good f-cking swing at Blair and Brownfor leading her countries to illegal warfareand trying to pass it off that we're doing 'cause we care."Now preemptive of wars are a redemptive cause"I've never heard such nonsense under international lawsWe think we have the right to enforce democracywhen we're weakening ours everydayWhat hypocrisy.We'll be together against thisWe'll be forever against thisWe'll be together against thisWe'll be forever against thisF-ck manI just woke up to a land where killing is part of every dayand every mind in this intelligent speciesis then blinded into the battlefieldlike it's natural for us to break instead of buildUnities intrinsic the only cause worth fighting for,all religions, colours and creedsNow we are the world and we are the peopleWe are the world and we are the peopleand we will be heard.We'll be together against thisWe'll be forever against thisWe'll be together against thisWe'll be forever against thisWe'll be together against thisWe'll be forever against thisWe'll be together against thisWe'll be forever against thisWe'll be together against thisWe'll be forever against thisWe'll be together against thisWe'll be forever against this

No actually...no. Cause remember its Britain yeah? Yeah. We have to play your shit anthem God Save the queen at sports events so I believe this would be 'Britains' national anthem! What a typical common English person...something good means its English, something shite means its British!

Has such an important and justified message yet for some reason this is the type of band that are considered weird and are judged by most of the public. Dah fuck?!

They fucking nailed this at Kingston yesterday, hopefully people will now see what a song this is if they're gonna put it in their set more often, Fanfare has always been underrated in my opinion.
