We condemn all military action
The power and destruction
The force used against our will
The useless blood they spill

Just a matter of time, how when and where
Just a matter of time, how when and where
Just a matter of time, how when and where
Just a matter of time, how when and where

The guns and bombs are very real
They're meant for use against you and me
Maybe you'll soon discover
That it's not for defence or any peaceful matter

Just a matter of time, how when and where
Just a matter of time, how when and where
Just a matter of time, how when and where
Just a matter of time, how when and where

Your desparate laugh ain't for fun
Count your days one by one
Like sheep you go in for the slaughter
You don't even bother to ask what for
