John Butler Trio - We Want More Lyrics

When I was young
I longed to be a soldier
Playing war on the street
With Billy and my brother
Remembering all them years ago
Pop said, don't be a pawn in a rich man's war

You can't pick a side living on a ball
That only fight's to save your soul
Kid when I look around
And witness all the horror
And all the things that we do to hurt one another

I got to open the gates
We want more
We want more

Got everything
Can't find what we're looking for
We want more
We want more

Tell me what it means
Feeding this machine

When I was putting my little boy to bed
What about all the war and fighting he said
Everybody at school talking about World War Three
Can you tell me what's gonna happen to our family?

Kid when I look around
And witness all the horror
And all the things that we do to hurt one another
Could make you lose your hope
Lose your faith

Go AWOL on the human race
Got to believe in love
More than I do in hate
And when they raise the walls

You got to open the gates
We want more
We want more

Got everything
Can't find what we're looking for
We want more
We want more

Tell me what it means
Feeding this machine
We want more
We want more

Got everything
Can't find what we're looking for
We want more
We want more

Tell me what it means
Feeding this machine
We want more
We want more

Got everything
Can't find what we're looking for
We want more
We want more

Tell me what it means
Feeding this machine
We want more
We want more
