| [00:03.39] |
The draft is coming |
| [00:05.91] |
It's blowing down the door |
| [00:07.47] |
So pack your bags, boys and girls |
| [00:10.50] |
We're all going off to war |
| [00:12.78] |
You can be the next to die for Halliburton |
| [00:16.59] |
Pull the cord, drape the flag and draw the curtain |
| [00:20.97] |
You can pull the trigger for the Exxon Corporation |
| [00:24.39] |
Watch the cities burn around you while you're standing at your station |
| [00:28.95] |
You can shoot the children as they throw stones at your Humvee |
| [00:32.85] |
And you can die for Kerry or maybe for Dick Cheney |
| [00:36.54] |
(Chorus) |
| [00:46.11] |
When your tours are over and you come back |
| [00:49.65] |
Maybe you can go to college if you survive Iraq |
| [00:53.76] |
With DU dust in your lungs you can learn a trade |
| [00:58.53] |
In your dying years you'll have it made |
| [01:01.98] |
And when you're coughing up your last breath beneath the overpass |
| [01:05.91] |
You'll be praying for the fortunes of the military brass |
| [01:09.87] |
(Chorus) |
| [01:19.41] |
But you can be happy about the cause for which you died |
| [01:23.55] |
At least you fought for freedom unlike the other side |
| [01:27.24] |
They were setting off car bombs while you dropped them from the sky |
| [01:31.56] |
You sold the country off to whatever company would buy |
| [01:35.28] |
Shut their papers down and shot them for their liberty |
| [01:39.36] |
So as you die you know you left the world a bit more free |
| [01:43.47] |
(Chorus) |
| [02:18.39] |
Yes you can die for oil and watch history repeat |
| [02:22.32] |
Fight for empire in the desert and go down in defeat |
| [02:26.31] |
Or maybe it could happen that now in the second round |
| [02:30.93] |
We will take the struggle higher and this time hear the sound |
| [02:35.58] |
Of the chimes of freedom ringing when we take Washington, DC |
| [02:39.48] |
'Cause opportunity is knocking, oh say, can you see |
| [02:43.56] |
(Chorus) |
