My take on an old Country Joe McDonald war song from the 60's :)
Yeah, come on all of you, big strong men, Uncle Sam needs your help again. He's got himself in a terrible jam Way down yonder with ole Saddam So put down your mouse and pick up a gun, We're gonna have a whole lotta fun.
And it's one, two, three, What are we fighting for ? Don't ask me, I don't give a damn, Shock-and-awe for Iraq mad-man; And it's five, six, seven, Open up the pearly gates, Well there ain't no time to wonder why, Whoopee! we're all gonna die.
Well, come on generals, let's move fast; Your big chance has come at last. Gotta go out and cut off heads — The only good Fedayeen is one who's dead And you know that peace can only be won When we've blown 'em all to kingdom come.
And it's one, two, three, What are we fighting for ? Don't ask me, I don't give a damn, Kicked butt in 'ghanistan And it's five, six, seven, Open up the pearly gates, Well there ain't no time to wonder why Whoopee! we're all gonna die.
Well, come on Wall Street, don't move slow, Why man, this is war-a-go-go. There's plenty good money to be made By diverting the Feds from your criminal trade, Just hope and pray for the MOAB bomb, That they drop it when your short-not-long.
And it's one, two, three, What are we fighting for ? Don't ask me, I don't give a damn, Next stop is ole Iran And it's five, six, seven, Open up the pearly gates, Well there ain't no time to wonder why Whoopee! we're all gonna die.
Well, come on mothers throughout the land, Train your boys to kill Saddam. Come on fathers, don't hesitate, Send 'em off before it's too late. Be the first one on your block To have your boy come home in a box.
And it's one, two, three What are we fighting for ? Don't ask me, I don't give a damn, Nothing left but Pakistan. And it's five, six, seven, Open up the pearly gates, Well there ain't no time to wonder why, Whoopee! we're all gonna die. |
