Did You Hear What They Said

Did you hear what they said?
Did you hear what they said?
Did you hear what they said?

They said, "another brother's dead"
They said, "He's dead, but he can't be buried"
They said, "He's dead, but he can't be buried"
Come on, come on, come on, come on
This can't be real

Did you hear what they said?
Did you hear what they said?
Did you hear what they said?

They said they shot him in his head
A shot in the head to save his country
A shot in the head to save his country
Come on, come on, come on, come on
This can't be real

Did you hear what they said?
Yeah, did you hear what they said?
Did you hear what they said?

About his mother and how she cried?
They said, "She cried 'cause her only son was dead"
They said, "She cried 'cause her only son was dead"
Woman, could you imagine if your only son was dead?
And somebody told you, "he couldn't be buried"?
Hey, hey, come on, come on, come on, come on
This can't be real
