While I thoroughly accept you sentiment,
And understand your acts,
I think it's to your detriment,
To assume state myths are fact.
Iraqi's didn't try to blow us up,
Until we took their land.
A deal for Haliburton,
Yes just like Afghanistan.
Our government has made it clear,
An age of endless war,
Rogue nations they shall all be crushed,
By the hammer of our Thor.
Our people's minds are changing now,
They're seeing through the scam,
We won't see sons and daughters die,
Like good ole Vietnam.
Sure Saddam was an awful man,
But he was armed by Ron!
The same old tale through history,
Goes on and on and on.
See I believe in liberty,
And respect where it is due,
And while I respect all our guys,
Our leader's stuck like glue.
See Uncle George was bankrolled in,
And favours now are due.
And if that means we're scorching earth,
That's what they're gonna do.
So troops pick up your bibles please,
(Or Torahs or Korans.)
And show me where your divine says,
Let's bomb the holy lands.
Let's not give up our principles,
That make us feel so proud,
For we are freedom's soldiers,
And that can't be allowed.
