The Wars End Lyrics
Little Sammy was a punk rocker
You know his mother never understand him
Went to his room and smashed his Billy Bragg record
Didn't want him to hear that communist lecture
Little Sammy was a punk rocker
You know his mother tried to take him to war
Sammy, now the war is over
Sammy, now we're at the wars end
We're at the wars end
We're at the wars end
We're at the wars end
Little Sammy was a punk rocker
Now it's time for you to leave home
Sammy, now the war is over
Sammy, now we're at the wars end
We're at the wars end
We're at the wars end
We're at the wars end
love this song...it's on my soundtrack of life.
this song's awesome, and i think it's father, not mother, i might be wrong though. it's about when a punk kid moves out and he can be himself(duh) and he doesnt' have to worry about what his parents think. i can kind of relate to this song, but my parents aren't too bad. it reminds me more of my best friend, his are fucking assholes.
me and my friend argued about whether it's mother or father. most places i've read the lyrics say mother but it's hard to tell in the song
i got bored so wat i did was get that part of the song and slowed it down a little bit and found out wat it says................. o yea u want it....... "mother".
it's mother
saw rancid live in birmingham in september lars played this song with just his guitar and just him on stage he only song the first two liones and the crowd sang the rest.....and pyropunk summed it all up there so im out....gd on ya pyropunk!
i was sure it was father before but...whatever. billy bragg is the man. i never really thought before that "war" isnt literal, just a metaphore for the escalating tension between sammy and his parents. this whole album is so poetic but in a really hard, punk way.
i love this song
great song!! i know a sammy but she isn't a punk rocker at all me and her are complete oposites but thats ok i love this song and the cd is great to
This song is so cool. Think most punks can relate to it. Weve all felt misunderstood sometimes, its one of my favourite rancid songs. Love the slower gentler start and then how it builds up. Yeah, cool
