Lyrics

Johnny grabbed his helmet
Jumped out on the line
Put his rifle to his shoulder
Lightning strikes from behind
It's the same sad story
A war we'll never win
The dogs are in a circle
And chase their tails around they spin

War never ended a war
But the dogs keep yelling for more
it's a hole that's black, the circle trap
while the sane resist, they pound their fists
and the dogs keep howling at the moon

They say it's for survival
A war that no one caused
but the dogs whimper coolly
save the world at any cost
And the dogs will bark their speeches
How can you question why
But it's just an endless circle
Control with fear and hollow lies

War never ended a war
but the dogs keep yelling for more
it's a hole that's black, the circle trap
while the sane resist, they pound their fists
and the dogs keep howling at the moon

Their political ambition
Shows its bloody claws
Many more are dying
They pound their chest, "We have just cause"
But nothing ever changes
Time and time again
Lives lost on both sides
No one ever wins

War never ended a war
but the dogs keep yelling for more
it's a hole that's black, the circle trap
while the sane resist, they pound their fists
and the dogs keep howling at the moon
