Lyrics

[00:18.85] Don't just stand there watching it happening
[00:23.28] I can't stand it
[00:25.21] Don't feel it
[00:26.52] Something's telling me
[00:28.78] Don't wanna go out this way
[00:32.69] But have a nice day
[00:34.68] Then read it in the headlines
[00:38.71] Watch it on the TV
[00:42.47] Put it in the background
[00:46.40] Stick it in the bag
[00:48.58] Stick it in the bag
[00:50.33] For the beautiful occupation
[00:54.65] The beautiful occupation
[00:58.58] You don't need an invitation
[01:02.53] To drop in upon a nation
[01:06.85] I'm too cynical
[01:09.25] I'm just sitting here
[01:10.75] I'm just wasting
[01:12.87] my time
[01:14.55] Half a million
[01:16.67] civillians gonna die today
[01:20.60] But look the wrong way
[01:22.61] Then read it in the headlines
[01:26.53] Watch it on the TV
[01:30.78] Put it in the background
[01:34.27] Stick it in the bag
[01:36.29] Stick it in the bag
[01:38.35] For the beautiful occupation
[01:42.29] The beautiful occupation
[01:46.53] You don't need an invitation
[01:50.53] To drop in upon a nation
[01:55.36]
[02:27.16] Don't just stand there watching it happening
[02:31.17] I can't stand it
[02:32.29] Don't feel it
[02:33.16] Something telling me
[02:37.25] Don't wanna go out this way
[02:40.51] But have a nice day
[02:42.65] Then read it in the headlines
[02:46.52] Watch it on the TV
[02:50.32] Put it in the background
[02:54.32] Stick it in the bag
[02:56.19] Stick it in the bag
[02:58.06] For the beautiful occupation
[03:02.55] The beautiful occupation
[03:06.67] You don't need an invitation
[03:10.48] To drop in upon a nation
[03:14.47] For the beautiful occupation
[03:18.36] The beautiful occupation
[03:22.41] So much for an intervention
[03:26.47] Don't call the united nations
