War Dance - XTC

There’s an epidemic

Stirring passions in young hearts

Even the old campaigners

Have got it really bad

Well we ain’t seen nothing like it

Since coronation day

But when the street parties sound

I’m going underground

To keep the rabid hounds at bay

Oh my my -- this war dance

A patriotic romance

No we ain’t seen nothing like it

Since coronation day

But when the tickatape flies

And blood is on the rise

You know it’s got you in its sway

You got yourself a war dance

There’s a cheap sensation
