War du Jour
V1
Does anybody care what’s going on
Entitled Nations debating everyday
Arguing who’s right and who’s wrong
Lips are moving, got nothing to say
V2
They’re voting on a resolution
Ain’t trying to find a cure
Just hoping for a quick solution
To the latest, latest war du jour
Chorus
The DNA of a war du jour
Is found in the blood that’s been shed
You’d think by now we’d be sick of it all
At least the counting of the dead
Solo
V3
Today they're fightin' in the Middle East
Been there done that before
The land of God has seen no peace
In its forever war du jour
Its forever war du jour
Chorus
The DNA of a war du jour
Is found in the blood that’s been shed
You’d think by now we’d be sick of it all
At least the counting of the dead
V4
Nothing changes, just the names
Of those dying for the cause
Forget about a lasting peace
We're just hoping for a pause
Bridge
Til "folks" get fed up and shout
That's it, no more
There will always be
A war du jour
Chorus
The DNA of a war du jour
Is found in the blood that’s been shed
You’d think by now we’d be sick of it all
At least the counting of the dead

Good title...I thought of the word blasé for some reason. Surfing the net and a menu of various world conflicts presents for my clicking...? amusement or boredom.
Like an attitude song....wake the audience somehow...start a peace revolution. Shock and awe effect....and then a bomb when off in my backyard.

And my house and me were flying into the beyond.

Just some thoughts...picking up on Tony's idea...just one left.

Well written song Steven , Bridge is a tad long... radio wise . Some great lines on cavemen mentality and wars.
