Living these days is making me nervous Archaic doctrine no longer serve us Now we're left as silent witnesses We don't know quite what this is Other than a war that can't be won Oh, it's tension So much tension Living on both sides of the gun Well, I feel like I'm crowded, I can't get out World keeps on filling me up with doubt When you're trapped you got no voice Where you're born you got no choice Other than to go and take you some Oh, it's tension Too much to mention When you're living on both sides of the gun Both sides of the gun One dimensional fool In a three dimensional world One dimensional fool In a three dimensional world One dimensional fool In a three dimensional world, sing it Politics, it's a drag They put one foot in the grave and the other on the flag Systems rotten to the core, young and old deserve much more Than struggling every day until you're done Oh, tension Too much to mention cause we're Living on both sides of the gun Mmm, tension Oh, I can't mention We're living on both sides of the gun Living on both sides of the gun Living on both sides of the gun
