Well I walked out of the house one morning
A couple of days ago
I walked into the store to get a newspaper to go
They said that a eastern country was drifting the war
So I turned on my radio to get some more


Refrain:
When the first bomb is falling
The truth surely dies
And the headlines of the paper
Are only telling lies

They said that the bombers were on the way
Families were on the run
Some common graves were discovered today
I can't believe - what they said
'Cause when someone declares the war
The truth - always dies at first
45 channels always the same
Won't you tell me, who's to blame

Refrain:
When the first bomb is falling
The truth surely dies
And the headlines of the paper
Are only telling lies
