    Default Stand (And Do Nothing)

    This song was inspired by the Gaza conflict and Britain and Americas failure to do anything

    A single drop of water
    Does not make a splash
    Nor does a single bandage
    Heal a gaping gash
    We watch from our TV sets
    The children that we pity
    Say this would never happen
    In any Western city

    Chorus:
    And yet we
    Stand and do nothing
    While these people keep on dying
    And the babies keep on crying
    We know what's right
    So do it tonight
    Or shall we stand and do nothing?

    On the news we see dying
    People in the street
    And watch as people try
    To find something to eat
    People pull the rubble
    From their broken homes
    They try to find their lost ones
    Among the bloody bones

    Chorus

    The men who run our nation
    Have the power to decide
    If all our money could've
    Saved the ones who've died
    A programme on the radio
    For these men to leave no doubt
    'There's nothing we could do'
    I hear the liars shout

    Chorus

    Bridge:
    Have we forgetton how it feels?
    To never eat our meals.
    Or do we push it from our minds

    Chorus
