zombie -- cranberries

Another head hangs lowly, child is slowly taken  And the violence caused
such silence,  who are we mistaken  But you see, it's not me, it's not my family
In your head, in your head they are fighting  With their tanks and their bombs
and their bombs and their guns  In your head, in your head they are crying


In your head, in your head  Zombie, zombie, zombie, eh-eh eh-eh
What's in your head, in your head  Zombie, zombie, zombie, eh-eh
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo


Another mother's breaking heart is taking over  When the violence causes
silence,  we must be mistaken  It's the same old theme since 1916
In your head, in your head they're still fighting  With their tanks and their
bombs  and their bombs and their guns In your head, in your head they are dyin'


In your head, in your head  Zombie, zombie, zombie, eh-eh eh-eh
What's in your head, in your head  Zombie, zombie, zombie, eh eh-eh
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh

This was inspired by the IRA bombing in Warrington, Cheshire in 1993. Two children  were killed. The IRA is a militant group determined to remove British troops from Northern Ireland 

The Irish fight for independence that seems to last forever." The lyrics even say, "It's the same old theme since 1916." Like the responsive works of Yeats, Heaney and U2, the Cranberries claim they wrote "Zombie" to be a "Song for peace, peace among England and Ireland."
