Travis - The Beautiful Occupation

The Beautiful Occupation

Dont just stand there watching it happening
I can not stand it
Dont feel it
Somethings telling me
Dont wanna go out this way
But have a nice day
Then read it in the headlines
Watch it on the TV
Put it in the background
Stick it in the bag
Stick it in the bag
For the beautiful occupation
The beautiful occupation
You dont need an invitation
To drop in upon a nation
Imtoo cynical
Imjust sitting here
Imjust wasting my time
Half a million civillians gonna die today
But look the wrong way
Then read it in the headlines
Watch it on the TV
Put it in the background
Stick it in the bag
Stick it in the bag
For the beautiful occupation
The beautiful occupation
You dont need an invitation
To drop in upon a nation
Dont just stand there watching it happening
I can not stand it
Dont feel it
Something telling me
Dont wanna go out this way
But have a nice day
Then read it in the headlines
Watch it on the TV
Put it in the background
Stick in the bag
Stick in the bag
For the beautiful occupation
The beautiful occupation
Dont need an invitation
To drop in upon a nation
The beautiful occupation
The beautiful occupation
So much for an intervention
Dont call the united nations
