Phillippe's Civil War Blues

Civil War Blues

Of course the Nationalists bombed Madrid
But murders of priests Republicans did

Consider Confederate slave drivers
But think of Yanks obsessed with fivers

They say the King was reaction'ry and cruel
But think of puritans peddling gruel

Serbs sacked Dubrovnik like Wild Hyena
Croats rampaged in Vojina Krajina

In internecine conflicts and battles fought
I never know which side to support
