Jennifer Lost The War

Offspring

Jennifer lost the war today


You'll find her burned and raped


Through it all


She must have wondered


What have I done


But nobody really cares today


The world's a busy place


Guess she must have really sinned





CHORUS:


I guess we're all just soldiers


She was only six years old


Left to die by strangers


Her family waits


And if we're all just soldiers


Is it so wrong to be afraid





Phoebe lost the war today


There must be some mistake


Say it happens all the time


And it's said and done


And Little Miss 1565 Your soul remains unclaimed


Guess you must have really sinned





Morality won't help her


When she lies silent in a morgue


And all our sorrows just don't count at all


But will the morning headlines


Even say that it's a shame


What are we headin' for





Seen it all before


Silent on the ground


As he's walking away


And I wonder how many more


Everybody takes it


Like it's nothing at all


Jennifer lost the war


CHORUS
