Well I guess you’d call it new, but maybe not so brave
And there goes Mr Huxley, spinning in his grave
Wetback warriors dripping with disdain
Staring out into the street, and going down the drain
You want to make the rules but you lack the constitution
Round and round is not a revolution
Torches and a pitchfork, hiding in the smog
Barking like a bitch while you’re wagging the dog
Until you run away, run away back into a hole
Waving that flag until you’ve broken the pole
Bang bang bang on your Fisher-Price drum
You call yourself a trooper by the rule of thumb
Stand down (stand down)
Stand down soldier, you’re playing for real and you’re not so tough
Stand down (stand down)
Stand down soldier, stand down soldier - enough is enough
You’re looking for the truth but you’re lying in the road
Smoking like a powder keg waiting to explode
Fumbling in the dark, looking for a fuse
That 50 point plan in the ones and twos
Tap tap tap, another great debate
Find another victim for the two minutes hate
I can see you brother, behind the big disguise
Just another hollow man begging for a prize
And you run away, run away, do another line
Write a manifesto, put it on a sign
Cry cry cry until you get what you please
You call yourself a trooper but you’re always on your knees
Stand down (stand down)
Stand down soldier, you’re playing for real and you’re not so tough
Stand down (stand down)
Stand down soldier, stand down soldier - enough is enough
Flay me for my flaws and drag me under keel
and give me your instructions on how I’m supposed to feel
And I’m ready when you need me, for all of your demands
I can haul a cannon ball and fall at your command
Another one down, and everybody’s hip
Take another cheap shot until you’ve emptied the clip
Play a little power game, try to start a war
You wanna be top banana but you’re yellow to the core
And you run away, run away, always self-defence
Build another wall, and still take offence
You you you, is that all you can do?
You call yourself a trooper but you haven’t got a clue
Stand down (stand down)
Stand down soldier, you’re playing for real and you’re not so tough
Stand down (stand down)
Stand down soldier, stand down soldier - enough is enough
Stand down (stand down)
Stand down soldier, you’re playing for real and you’re not so tough
Stand down (stand down)
Stand down soldier, stand down soldier - enough is enough
