They say it's for one man;
They say it's for the best.
The images on the television
Give Americans no rest.
They say it's the only way;
They say we've waited too long.
But why don't they listen
To the songbird's lonely song?
They say they've got weapons,
They say there must be,
They look and they don't find them,
And then they start to worry.
We watch the people die
Of what we began;
America, in foolishness,
Still can't kill the single man.
