v. Spy v. Spy — Pockets of Pride lyrics

Lyrics

There is no Christmas
They’re just a-kneeling in the sand
Over in the distance
There 's phrases of demand
Show us a reason, for your peace of mind
Show us a reason to smile
'Cause maybe the past is repeating, in front of our eyes
It' s out of sight and it 's out of time
There 's a desert of men, with pockets of pride
And they 're ready to fight
There are no faces
On the women in this place
They' re just rolling bandages
For the boys with a job to face
Show us a reason, for your peace of mind
Show us a reason to smile
'Cause maybe the past is repeating, in front of our eyes
It' s out of sight and it 's out of time
There 's a desert of men, with pockets of pride
They 're not ready to fight
There is no Christmas
They' re just a-bleeding in the sand
Send your brother home today
In a green plastic bag
Show us a reason for your peace of mind
Show us a reason to smile
'Cause maybe the past is repeating, in front of our eyes
It' s out of sight and it 's out of time
There 's a desert of men
I said there’s a desert of men
With pockets of pride
They 're not ready to fight
