Highwire

(jagger/richards)

We sell em missiles, we sell em tanks
We give em credit, you can call up the bank

Its just a business, you can pay us in crude (oil)
Youll love these toys, just go play out your feuds

Got no pride, dont know whose boots to lick
We act so greedy, makes me sick sick sick

So get up, stand up, out of my way
I want to talk to the boss right away
Get up, stand up, whose gonna pay
I want to talk to the man right away

We walk the highwire
Sending the men to the front line
Hoping they dont catch the hell fire
With hot guns and cold, cold lies

We walk the highwire
Sending the men up to the front lines
And tell em to hotbed the sunshine
With hot guns and cold, cold lies

Our lives are threatened, our jobs at risk
Sometimes dictators need a slap on the
Wrist
Another munich we just cant afford
Were gonna send in the 82nd airborne

Get up, stand up, whos gonna pay
I wanna talk to the boss right away
Get up, stand up, outta my way
I wanna talk to the man right away

We walk the highwire
Putting the world out on a deadlie
And hoping they dont taste the shellfire
With hot guns and cold, cold lies

We walk the highwire
Putting the world out on a deadlie
Catching the bite on primetime
With hot guns and cold, cold lies

Get up! stand up!
Dealer! stealer!
Hey!

We walk the highwire
Were sending the men to the front line
Were hoping that we backed the right side
With hot guns and cold, cold lies

We walk the highwire
We sending the men up to the front lines
And hoping they dont catch the hellfire
With hot guns and
Cold cold, cold, cold, cold lies

We walk the highwire
We walk the highwire
With hot guns and cold, cold, cold lies
