Here come the bombs
You know what to do
If I should be gone, son, it's over to you
Set up the stall
Put a smile on your face
Your dignity's one thing they cannot take

Nothing is going to change
Rise from the roots once again
And after the bombs and the blame
Their flowers will still remain

If there's a God
Why doesn't He come
And stop this cruel world from coming undone?
Beware the poem that hangs from their lips
They'll sell you a freedom that doesn't exist

Nothing is going to change
Rise from the roots once again
And after the bombs and the blame
Their flowers will still remain, oh, oh
Their flowers will still remain, oh, oh

Nothing is going to change
Rise from the roots once again
And after the bombs and the blame
Their flowers will still remain
