[Verse 1]
Let no stone go unturned
No village go unburned
Let nations price taggers
Stick their sallow daggers
Into everything that we own
Let our very children
Sold as X-Factor cattle
Be stripped in teenage battle
As slabs of beef from bone
Let every minute of every day
Let no hour go unconcerned
In thrall or bent
To those bastards we pray
So no sovereign peace goes unearned
No child that you'd not sell
No memory you'd not chop or fell
No corner that you'd not plough
Duly burn and cast down to hell
[Pre-Chorus]
Advice to daughters 1, 2 and 3
When you're too old to sit on Dad's knee
In the words of your Grandpa
When we'd given up hope
With so little left that was ours
Let no stone go unturned
No village go unburned
Let nations price taggers
Stick their sallow daggers
Into everything that we own
Let our very children
Sold as X-Factor cattle
Be stripped in teenage battle
As slabs of beef from bone
Let every minute of every day
Let no hour go unconcerned
In thrall or bent
To those bastards we pray
So no sovereign peace goes unearned
No child that you'd not sell
No memory you'd not chop or fell
No corner that you'd not plough
Duly burn and cast down to hell
[Pre-Chorus]
Advice to daughters 1, 2 and 3
When you're too old to sit on Dad's knee
In the words of your Grandpa
When we'd given up hope
With so little left that was ours
