The Elephant Sonata Arctica

[Verse 1]
I know, I've never been to a war
And hope I never have to
See my world go up in flames
With greed nor desire

All wars be a feast of death
And the truth goes by with a bodyguard of lies
They feed on our fears
War's a contagion

[Pre-Chorus]
A tiny child learned to build a wall
He has built a wall
He has sealed the door
He has been to war
He will wage war

"The shortest war in recorded history took place in 1896
When Zanzibar surrendered to Britain after 38 minutes
The longest war was the so-called 100-year war
Between Britain and France
It actually lasted 116 years, ending in 1453
One out of every two casualties of war
Is a civilian caught in the crossfire
There are 92 known cases of nuclear bombs lost at sea
The doors that cover the US nuclear silos
Weigh 748 tons and open in 19 seconds. Wow
About 50% of arms exports
Go to non-democratic regimes
Since 1495, no 25-year period has been without war
Since 1815 there have been
More than 210 interstate wars
The NATO attack on Serbia in 1999 during
The Kosovo war killed more animals than people
The very first bomb the Allies dropped
On Berlin in World War II killed the only
Elephant in the Berlin Zoo."
