COUNTER-REVOLUTION
And then I was at war
had my love to call
the post-office blown away
all else besieged
just no getting through
in the end it all worked out
man wants it that way
message understood
we kissed a thousand words
clung body to body
no one in our way
we drove out of town
left the war
to just people.
