Came in this morning
High on a birds wing
Quite open-minded
But still quite aware
Followed the sunrise
Right through from dawning
Picking out landmarks
That said I was there
Led to positions
By stern faced leaders
Who never let one smile
Depart from their face
Then with an armraise
The slaughter is started
One or two crack up
And start to cry
Selfishness breeds in
This cesspool of sorrow
Every few moments
I see a friend die
Synchronized watches
Flash in the sunlight
As into the battle
We all are led
Killer, killer
Keep your thoughts at bay
Maiming, destroying
Every single day
Is this the way
That you get your fun
Slaying, waylaying
In the heat of the midday sun
Get out, get out
Go and do your job
Rape and pillage
Squander all and rob
You make me sick
Getting paid for murder
You wouldn't lay a finger on your mother, oh no
You never ever dream to hurt her
Hero, hero
You have done so well
So sit back and lick your wounds
Cause you won't go to hell
Take your medal
Wear it now with pride
Consolation for the pain
And sin you feel inside |
