Deja Vu All Over Again

Did you hear 'em talking '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 risin'
Startin' with a whisper like it did before
Day by day, we count the dead and dying
Ship the bodies home while the networks all keep score

Did you hear 'em talking 'bout it on the radio?
Could your eyes believe 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 momma's crying
She's lost her precious child to a war that has no end

Did you hear 'em talking 'bout it on the radio?
Did you stop to read the writing on 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
