tom robinson – truce lyrics

Loading...

truce, call a truce
stop all the firing and the fighting
christmas morning, 1914
what would the good lord say?

truce, call a truce
stop all the sh+lling and the shooting
froehliche weinacht
kamerad, freundschaft
let’s all be friends for a day

in the man made h+ll
in the putrescent smell
in the mines and mud and trenches
the men from the rhine crossed over the line
for a truce…
with the tommies and the frenchies

but the very next day
there were hand grenades
there was gunfire, gassing and slaughter
as we blasted the hun
to kingdom come
with machine guns, sh+lling and mortars

it was nice to pretend
we could all live as friends
with the christmas angels calling
but the dream turned sour
in a matter of hours
and we made it all up in the morning
truce, call a truce
stop all the b+tching and backbiting
who’d leave their lover
or send in the bailiffs
this one day of the year?

truce, call a truce
stop all the sackings and the stealing
who’d rape a schoolgirl
or cut off someone’s pension
and spoil all this christmas cheer

there’s a couple of days when the bashers of g+ys
who oppress, arrest and charge us
all leave us alone to return back home
for a truce…
with our mothers and our fathers

but the very next day it’s back to the fray
and setting our homes in order
bashing lesbian mothers
and underage lovers
disowning g+y sons and daughters

well it’s quaint to pretend
we can love our fellow men
with the christmas angels calling
but the dream turns sour
in a matter of hours
and they make it all up in the morning
