Battle Of The Roses

I jumped ship

Heard the sirens singing

Swam like a sinner till

I reached the shore

Bum trip

The mutiny was brewing

Candle to the keg to the ocean floor

Now I'm alone, yes I'm alone

The old world's sinking like a stone

I am a man without a country

And I'm a boy without a home

I'm a casualty of the battle of the roses

And the war of the broken home

I got busted for drinking while thinking

Carrying a weapon under my coat

And I trusted the wrong bunch of people

And now I'm a pirate on the bad dream boat

And I'm alone, yes I'm alone

And now I fly the skull and bones

I am a man without a country

And I'm a boy without a home

I'm a casualty of the battle of the roses

And the war of the broken home

Oh I see land (ho!) divided down the middle

And the sides are divided and divided again

I see so (see so!) many people lonely

Lover hating lover

Friend against friend

And I'm alone, yes I'm alone

And now I'm never going home

I am a man without a country

And I'm a boy without a home

I'm a casualty of the battle of the roses

And the war of the broken home
