Exit Strategy

Lyrics

They sent your son with a plan To fight some war in a desert land He ain't gonna come home again He's makin' some money for a Texas man Helicopters in the sky All the little soldiers die Their mothers and their daughters cry 'Cause of politician's lies! Have your innocence stolen and you're traded like a slave Have your promises broken and you're in for an early grave They're deep in the schools now, recruitin' for their war They know to skip all the rich kids, 'cause the focus is on the poor It's always been like this, you wanna be all you can be First they shave all your hair off, and then you're no longer free I have never understood compliance to assimilation that just doesn't make sense Take a look at the state of the world, I've never seen foreign relations more tense Chaos reigns where troops are stationed, a panel of suits couldn't save 'em If they tried bombed on all sides no plan for escape This mission is fucked! This mission is fucked! All this is is a money game Let's get down to the core Fight your battles here at home and don't go off to war Don't waste your time stealin' oil, for Bush and Uncle Sam They don't give a damn about our lives, this war was all their scam Preying on minorities' insecurities in ads The possibility of winning a war on terrorism is mad The oppurtunity just didn't arise, this was all a part of their plan Do you think they give two shits about the future man? Don't give up on your dreams my son The fight for terrorism can't be won With guns and bombs and tanks and planes Peaceful progression is the only way!
