History Songtext

HISTORY (Sullivan/ Morrow) 1981 I know that it happened, I know that story But that was years and years ago Still you're pushing and still you're claiming The pound of flesh you say I owe Ch: We've already paid for it We've already strung for it We've already died for it Why can't you leave us alone? There is no whitewash, there's no conspiracy You're not a victim anymore I know it's easy to be a loser If you spill acid in your sores Ch: We've already paid for it . . . Bring in the hard men, bring in the armoury If escalation's what you want Everybody needs an enemy But I don't want to be yours Ch: We've already paid for it . . .
