When will the madness end

This song appears on ONE BIG NO
by Artists Against War
 
So the bombs are dropping once again
In the name of enduring freedom, but to what end
Exactly whose freedom are they fighting for
This so called anti-terror war
Oh Afghanistan
Who are the ones who'll be left behind
To face the bombs and the gunfire
Is it another Middle East genocide
If you think that bombing is the answer
You've gotta ask who pays the price
Is it the ones guilty for anyone's suffering
Or is it the innocent ones who are sacrificed
 
Oh Palestine

A forgotten story of a war a long time begun

In the name of God or the name of money
That's forced them on the run
 
If you think divide and conquer is the answer
You've gotta ask who pays the price
Is it the ones who tell them they can't live together
Or is it their strength to resist sacrificed
 
Oh Africa
Another thousand people will have died by the end of this song
Strangled by a debt that's owed to the wealthy
In their profit marathon
 
If you think that money is the answer
You've gotta ask who wins the prize
Is it the ones working so hard all our lifetime
Or is it the elite to build castles in the sky
 

When will the madness end

When will the madness end
It's happening again and again
When will the madness end
