War

The reason for this fighting is that we do not like The attitude that's ensued by the other side Too big for their britches them and all their like That's why we're here to make it clear and cut them down to size A necessary evil this fighting of the wars All of this upheaval but who is keeping score In the mean time either stand in line or step aside as we find the cure We'll start a fad with the MOAB in our latest killing du jour We've taking it out upon ourselves to be the world police From upper North to lower South we're bombing for relief Making a promise to ourselves a promise we will keep Not resting until the entire world has our brand of Democracy If we have to kill to do it then so let it be That's just the cost of freedom cause freedom don't come cheap Wherever did you get the idea that freedom would be free So pack up your soul and conscience those sissies you won't need Be a good citizen and do as you are told There's some things that the government would rather you not know Just know that the bad guys are on the other side And all the killing that we do is only saving lives And since we're the men in white You know we'd never lie
