The All-American Rejects - Sandbox
See the children play, in camo green
Morning tea, cuppa casualties
Merrily merrily merrily we all fall down
Smoky skies, under power lines
The come hither look in the bullseyes
Pig tails, cross hairs
Don’t be scared it’ll all be over soon
Bang!
And the toy soldiers set sail
Bang!
Even the bully knows war is hell
Where is the beauty in the madness
The sandbox, is thirsty
Outside the bombs are bursting
See how they run in the gold hot sun
Billy’s got a sling shot, Jenny’s got a cap gun
And the cannons cry,
Little Billy sucks his thumb
Don’t cry Billy, Jenny’s just having fun!
Bang!
And the toy soldiers set sail
Bang!
Even the bully knows war is hell
Where is the beauty in the madness
Bang!
And when the battleships capsize
Look for the whites in their eyes
You crack a smile in the sadness
The sandbox, is thirsty
Outside the bombs are bursting
