The Serbs and the Albanians all at the table
We’ve seen this before as if it’s a fable
The armies are silent, now just the pen
Is the weapon that can bring this conflict’s end
The EU and others sit around flustered
“It’s so easy” they say “just get up the muster
to buck your public’s discord, dismay
so we can get in front of the cameras and display
a final agreement to ease all your problems
peace and stability, we totally solved ‘em”
While back in Belgrade, Mitro, and Prishtinë
The average citizen is hardly serine
Angered by feeling left out and avoided
It’s one more deal that’s gonna be voided
Thaçi and Dačić will speak over reason
In the Balkans, after all, peace takes more than a season
We wanted democracy as a simple result
Of the NATO effort just after the fault
Lines began to so brutally fracture
Curing Balkanization is what the EU is after
So while their goal is noble and impassioned
This story needs a hero and it’s not Lady Ashton
