06 When The War Came | |
With all the grain of Babylon | |
To cultivate to make us strong | |
And hidden here behind the walls | |
Are shoulders wide and timber on | |
'Til the war came | |
'Til the war came | |
A terrible autonomy | |
Is grafted onto you and me | |
Our trust put in the government | |
They told their lies are heaven sent | |
'Til the war came | |
'Til the war came | |
And the war came with a curse and a caterwaul | |
And the war came with all the poise of a cannonball | |
And they're picking out our eyes by coal and candlelight | |
When the war came, the war came hard | |
We made our oath to Vavilov | |
We'd not betray the Solanum | |
The acres of asteraceae | |
To our own pangs of starvation | |
When the war came | |
When the war came | |
And the war came with a curse and a caterwaul | |
And the war came with all the poise of a cannonball | |
And they're picking out our eyes by coal and candlelight | |
When the war came, the war came hard | |
With all the grain of Babylon |
