Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio

Did you try to read the writing on the wall

Did that voice inside you say

I've heard it all before

It's like deja vu all over again

Day by day I hear the voices rising

Started with a whisper like it did before

Day by day we count the dead and dying

Ship those bodies home

While the networks all keep score

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio

Could you're eyes belive the writing on the wall

Did that voice inside you say

I've heard it all before

It's like deja vu all over again

One by one I see the old ghosts rising

Stumblin' 'cross Big Muddy

Where the light gets dim

Day after day another Mamma's crying

She's lost her precious child

To a war that has no end

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio

Did you stop to read the writing at the wall

Did that voice inside you say

I've seen this all before

It's like deja vu all over again

It's like deja vu all over again
