Lyrics

The threat, they say Comes from countries ending in '-an' Where the family name is Khan And they all read the Koran The answer, they say Is to bomb them all to dust Then in fifty years they just Might be able to see things our way We're not barbarians Like we were way back when We've learned from history So we're going round again I miss the days When the threat to our position Didn't come from some religion But from godless Communism We're not barbarians Like we were way back when We've learned from history So we get to go round, get to go round, get to go round, get to go round again Tell your sons Not to bother with football Get a backpack on and crawl We're in this for the long haul Tell your sons Not to bother with football Get a backpack on and crawl We're in this for the long haul
