Fire, fire, fire, light up ya lighter, fire fire fire
Armageddon is a deadly day, Armageddon is a deadly way
They commin for you everyday, While Senators on holiday

The Army recruiters in the parking lot, Hustling kids there jugglin pot
Listen young man, Listen to my plan , Gonna make you money, gonna make you a man

Bom Bom

Here’s what you get, An M-16 and a Kevlar vest
You might come home with one less leg, But this thing will surely keep a bullet out of your chest

So Come on Come on, Sign up, Come on
This one’s nothing like Vietnam
Except for the bullets, Except for the bombs,
Except for the youth that’s gone

Chorus
So we keep it on, til ya coming home, Higher and Higher
Fire, fire, fire, light up ya lighter, fire fire fire, so we keep it on
Til ya commin home, higher and higher
Fire, fire, fire, light up ya lighter, fire fire fire

Tell me President tell if you will,
How many people does a smart bomb kill
How many of em do you think we got,
The General says we never miss a shot
And we never ever ever keep a body count,
we killin so efficiently we can’t keep count
In the Afghan hills the rebels still fightin,
Opium fields keep providin
The best heroin that money can buy
and nobody knows where Osama bin hidin
The press conferences keep on lyin like we don’t know

Some say engine engine number nine,
Machine guns on a New York transit line
The war for oil is a war for the beast,
the war on terror is a war on peace
Tellin you they’re gonna protect you,
Tellin you that they support the troops
Don’t let them fool you with their milk and honey,
No they only want your money
One step forward and two steps back,
Why do veterans get no respect
PTSD and a broken back,
Take a look at where your moneys gone seen
Take a look at what they spend it on
No excuses, No illusions

Light up ya lighter

Bush confuses Austria with Australia as bin Laden joker crashes party
by RICHARD SHEARS -
He is famous for his gaffes, but even by George Bush's standards it was a bad day.

Addressing an audience in Sydney, the U.S. president referred to Australian troops as Austrians and became confused about which event he is there to attend.

He also got tongue-tied over the name of an Asian terrorist group and came close to coming a cropper when he walked the wrong way off a platform.


But with his history of muddled speeches and mangled words, everyone - including heads of state from the Pacific region - just accepted his mistakes and grinned.

Mr Bush, in Australia for the Asia Pacific Economic Co-operation summit (APEC), began his "slips of the tongue" day at a business forum at the Sydney Opera House when he thanked Australian prime minister John Howard for his hospitality.

"Thank you for being such a fine host for the OPEC summit," he said.

As those who know that Australia has never been a member of the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries began to titter, the President quickly corrected himself.

"APEC summit," he said, before making a joke of his gaffe by adding: "He invited me to the OPEC summit next year."

A little later he thanked Mr Howard's soldiers for serving in Iraq, referring to them as Austrian troops.

Horrified White House officials quickly set about correcting official tapes of the speech so the word came out as "Australian", but journalists' tape recorders had trapped the error.


Then, referring to a terrorist group in the region called Jemmiah Islamia, Mr Bush stumbled over the pronounciation of the first word.

Later, he showed a flash of anger when a veteran White House correspondent asked him if there had been any new message in his speech.

As he left the platform, Mr Bush came close to stumbling off when he strode away from the lectern in the wrong direction.

He was redirected to centre stage, where there were steps leading down to the floor of the theatre.

Thousands of protesters gathered in Sydney with some dropping their trousers and "mooning" to make their anger at Mr Bush's presence known, but he did not see them because the Opera House was secured inside a three-mile ring of steel.

John,

The problem was in not listening to him. Your perception of him is actually irrelevant.
