War Mistake

Through darkened sky the B 52 pass
And the pilot whoops tonight 'we will kick ass'
He release his bombs a loud bang in the dark
The sky light up the bombs have hit their mark.

He return to base to be told we've made mistake
You've left hundreds of civilian corpses in your wake
'Twas a civilian shelter that your bombs ripped through tonight
But what's done is done and cannot be put right.

We just mapped the wrong target out for you
And 'twas our mistake though our mistakes are few
And we must try to counteract the bad publicity
By shifting the blame on to the enemy.

In war there is no wrong and all is fair
And we'll tell the World that the civilian targets were placed there
You don't go to war to lose you go to win
And enemy civilian deaths to us no shameful sin.

In war there is no guilt there is no shame
And for civilian deaths we'll not be taking blame
And all wars down through the ages been the same
The more you kill the greater is your fame.
