All My Sons

All My Sons is the b-side of the 1991 James single Sound.

It is a very clear anti-war diatribe based on the Gulf War originally played on the 1990 Winter tour.

All my sons
First blood upon the sand
More soldiers damned to die
Defending the honour of thieves
Cos power swells with each new well
Blackens shrines in our holy land
All my sons
All my
Son, whose side you on
It's black and white
We are right so they must be wrong
And will you kill
Or will be killed
Life must be lost
If land must be won
All my sons
All my sons
Baby's on the ground
Baby's on his knees
Baby's gonna cry
Baby's gonna bleed
Centuries of waste
Centuries of greed
Mothers of the world
Are you gonna grieve
She said you are all my sons
You are all my sons
You are all my sons
All my sons
