Words & music by paul simon

On armistice day
The philharmonic will play
But the songs that we sing
Will be sad
Shufflin brown tunes
Hanging around, ahoo
M-m-m-m-m-m-m
No long drawn blown out excuses
Were made
When i needed a friend she was there
Just like an easy chair

Oo, oo-o
M-m-m-m-m-m-m

Armistice day
Armistice day
That’s all i really wanted to say

Oh i’m weary from waiting
In washington d.c.
I’m coming to see my congressman
But he’s avoiding me
Weary from waiting down in washington d.c.

Oh congresswoman
Won’t you tell that congressman
I’ve waited such a long time
I’ve about waited all i can
Oh congresswoman, won’t you tell that congressman

You’re watching people fighting, you’re watching people losing
On armistice day

The watchers do the wincing, reporters so convincing
But the tv never lies
I went looking for a war, but the only guns i saw
Never used in anger

You’re watching people fight, say they fight, oh say they lose
On armistice day

The fixers do the fixing, the locals do the lynching
The papers deny
I went looking for a headline, got talking to the backline
They’d never seen the action
