So now, heres a piece I wrote against the war
And its not out of date, I don't apologize for it
For all these people in the San Francisco Examiner and on TV who ridiculed people who protested the war, ho ho, you were wrong
No, killing hundred of thousands of Iraqi's for profit is much worse than being wrong
As Richard Nixon used to say, during the Vietnam War, "Now more than ever"
You, you look like you’re just the right age to be drafted!
Does that even bother you?
Still thinking about that?
There was a sign at Jonestown, behind Jim Jones' dead body and it said, "Those who do not remember the past, are condemned to repeat it, those who do not remember the past, are condemned to repeat it"
Which would you rather sacrifice, your hot car, or your life?
Die for oil, Sucker,
Born on the fire cracker Fourth of July, raised on football and MTV
Never felt what its like to have to fight to stay free,
Vietnam just a time life book, memory!
The mask is off again, this time nobody cares, but you can't keep dancing when your legs are blown away,
Die for oil, sucker, sucker, sucker
You too can get your face shot off, so arms race tycoons don't have to get a real job
The cold wars over, it was all a mirage
We could use that money, we got problems to solve
But we're not allowing a chance of a peace dividend cause our psycho president's got his head in the sand.
Saddam Hussein so ego-centric, he even replaced Micky Mouse on watches with his own face
Last spring he was our tyrant, we thought we could use, we sold him his guns and his nerve gas too
When he told our ambassador, he was fixing to invade, April glass he told him, no problem, uncle scam wouldn't care
What kind of a bush league double cross is this, cheap oil? The price has already gone up!
this still could wind up making a raceme look like picnic and keep in mind James Baker is a born again Christian
Does he believe in Armageddon and the last generation?
Die for oil, sucker, Sucker, Sucker
You too can get your spinal chord snapped
To save greedy kings from the greed of Iraq
Give your life for a country where woman can't vote
And people still get there heads and hands chopped off
In Saudi Arabia they'll stone you to death for sleeping with another person’s husband or wife
Woman can't go out alone or show their face or even drive
And there’s never elections you can't even ask why
But they finally did outlaw slavery
In 1962, so progress is being made
And they're sitting on something we've learned to live without
But certain fat cats, bank accounts cannot, oil
For this, you get to be all you can be: a dead army, navy, air force, marine
Come home one of those deranged unemployed Vets,
The kind they love to make TV cop shows about
Just like Tom Cruise in a wheel chair, no film royalties, because nobody cares
About you once you've been used to die for Oil, Sucker, Sucker, Sucker
It’ll kill the poor even faster than crack
Send them off to war, make sure they don't come back
Give them tanks that fall apart, and helicopters that crash
2,000 died in Panama cause the Stealth can't shoot straight
800 million dollar batman plane, and it doesn't even work
No surprise in their idea of national security is toilet seats that cost them 800 bucks
And is it even worth it in this day and age to end up the winners of a world war 3
Think about it, once we take over that place, we'll never, ever be able to leave
Somehow we think we're gonna waltz right in to colonize their hearts and minds
But the Arab people are so damn mad, we'll be lucky to get out of there alive
You think any of them want their kids to sell us oil
Think of the cost to keep our army there
Where the only way left to bleed oil out of the ground is the soldier’s guns treating Arabs like slaves
Or was that all part of the plan?
Gotta put 400,000 NATO troops somewhere
They found a scam to extend the cold war
It’s called Die for oil, sucker, sucker, sucker
Cause America the beautiful is going to hell
We no longer make cars or TV's very well
Our economy sprigged on selling guns and making war
What happens when no one wants our products anymore?
America the powerful has hit a decline
Our cities and people are falling apart
Now nutrition and infant mortality rates to rival damn near any third world slave state you name
Got one thing left to sell, that’s the world beliefs
A mercenary state to ensure there’s no peace
We love doing your dirt work, but y'all gotta pay
My style protection money to the U S of A
Rich thugs with no vision trying to save their empires
New world order mafia with bums still in charge
Reducing America to a banana republic
Die for Oil, sucker,
What’s so sick about this, is there’s a better way
Stop selling guns to Arabs and to Israel
Don’t need to keep our selves hostage to oil
Use our Star Wars know how to build solar powered cars
(Won’t need an army either)
What clerk in the Patent office might be all it would take to find blueprints for a solar car General Motors shelved away?
But oh know, that’s too simple, and there’s money to be made
Especially if you already have all you'll ever need
For those of us who can't buy our way out like rich folks like Dan Quale do
Its burn your draft card, burn the flag, and burn the Pentagon too!
That’s why we got the world’s first tabloid war
No bodies, no funerals, no wounded, no gore
Super bowl everyday where we always win
So much yellow ribbon, we are hanging ourselves
That’s what’s so different from ugly Vietnam
Media that brought that war home's been bought out
General electric controls NBC news
They want to sell weapons, they distort what we view
And those Ra Ra we love war polls be believed
When so many of us everywhere are out on the streets
Pentagon parity papers won't admit we exist
But that says to me is their odors are scared
That we will get as strong as they did in Berlin
And tear down there walls and there new order scams
Yellow ribbon McCarthyism can't hold us too long
We support our troops because we say bring them home!!!!
So be all you could be! Say no to the army, air force marines!
Get off your butt before your butts blown off
Don’t die for oil, don't be a sucker
