You cannot fight a war
With water guns and whistles
It does no good to roar
When the enemy’s firing missiles
He starts a thousand little fires
He knows we can’t address them all
Before long we’ve grown tired
We just can’t answer every call
He lights a fire in Ukraine
He lights another at the border
He pretends to be restrained
He cries out for law and order
He wants Greenland under ice
He wants Canada to pay
He’d like us to pay the price
To send our working force away
There are a thousand little fires
Every single one is burning bright
Every circumstance is dire
It’s all too much for us to fight
So choose your battle and take aim
Keep your target in your sights
Exposing lies and naming names
Holding justice to the light
