War is dumb
The ANZACs sailed from Albany to a cheering crowd
They were searching for adventure and to show the Krauts
They were set upon the headland, mud up to their knees
and gunned down by the hundred for his majesty
and they were cut down by the thousand for his majesty

A woman waits in Geraldton looking out to sea
wondering did he get my letter and tin of bickies
She's scanning the horizon, searching for a crumb
The birds proceed to mock her crying war is fucking dumb
and the birds they seem to mock her crying war is fucking dumb
We swept up all our young men sent them to Khe San.
Made complicit with a genocide while marching to a band
Scarred with images and faces, thinking back to where they're from,
a child tugging at his coattails, "papa, war is fucking wrong"
a child tugging at your coattails saying "war is fucking wrong"
Our Diggers went to Timor, across the dire strait
Our intelligence betrayed them, they were spying on our mates
At the time we did not know it, but we found the shoe that fit
the bill signed Alexander Downer p.s. aint' war a bitch
and we made him our Ambassador, what a fucking dick
He dishonored our brave soldiers, yeah, wars are fucking shit
Lest we may forget the wars we choose not to see
We tried to cleanse Tasmania of Aborigine
Thank Christ we did not prevail, but there's a price to pay
We still choose to discriminate, saying "war is fucking gay",
Do you think that we might change the date of Australia Day?
This 11th of November, would you spare a thought my friends
for all our brave young soldiers who met a bloody end
Have a snagger and play two up, would you like to place a punt
One thing that you can bet on, wars a bloody
bad idea, it's a mad idea my friends
With violent means, we'll reap a violent end
There's one thing that you can bet on... war is fucking dumb
We still choose to discriminate... war is fucking dumb
the bill signed Alexander... war is fucking dumb
a child tugging at your coattails saying... war is fucking dumb
the birds that seem to mock her crying... war is fucking dumb
There's one thing we know for certain, yes, i think we can agree... please
because it echoes through our history books "war is fucking dumb"
yes, it echoes through our history books "war is fucking dumb"
