The Feelers Lyrics
"Weapons Of War"

I stood alone on the porch
Looking over the fields with my brandy hand
Sometimes I run
Sometimes I limp
Sometimes I'm just thinking of you

Got a little excited, but that's okay
'Cause everybody's looking for love
Got a little excited, but that's okay
'Cause everybody's looking for love

[Chorus]
You want a little respect
Acting like a child on the introspect
Hiding on the wall side
On the dark side of the bed
You're playing in wigs now
All dressed in gold
That's no polish, it's the life I'm told
These are the weapons of the war

You're laced in a candy shame
Do you have a handle on your pain
I am here to celebrate your life
I am here to be your friend now
Yeah, I am your friend

[Chorus]
You want a little respect
Acting like a child on the introspect
Hiding on the wall side
On the dark side of the bed
You're playing in wigs now
All dressed in gold
That's no polish, it's the life I'm told
These are the weapons of the war

It's the short skirt, it's the long hair
Then you tell that you don't care

[Chorus]
You want a little respect
Acting like a child on the introspect
Hiding on the wall side
On the dark side of the bed
You're playing in wigs now
All dressed in gold
That's no polish, it's the life I'm told
These are the weapons of the war
