There's two little men Who are fighting a war They can't stop now It's been ten years Maybe more One is small and devious With hurt on his mind The other big and strong With pride on his side One plays dirty He'll do anything to win The other fends off attacks Again and again The battlegrounds are scarred Torn to pieces Ripped to shreds Neither can claim victory Till the other one is dead There's two little men Who are killing a boy They're treating the boy As if the boy were a toy Each one has an ear To have and to hold Their grip is too tight Their grip is so cold Two little men - One big and one small Two little men - In the middle of a war Two little men - And I can't see you Two little men - I'm using a metaphor
