Is this country worth the fight? |
Afghanistan A country so far away And for this we will pay They don’t want a democracy They’d rather have a theocracy We’re going broke making arms makers rich The pentagon doesn’t care about our poor Does the rest of our country want this war? Someone has to stand up and bitch These people will fight a thousand year war We are hated and can’t even the score The deadly opium poppies growth should stop And we won’t even stop, that cash crop Drugs come from that country for dough And kill more people than ever before The politicians are liars about the drug war Ten years there, with so little to show Their politicians are corrupt like mine That’s the same thing we have that haunts And the military industrial complex wants To fatten their bank’s bottom line Osama is gone and was not living there Once again it’s all about the money If we keep this up, our future’s not sunny Let the largest super power beware We can’t be the world’s moral leader And still be the biggest bottom feeder We can’t even decide to come together No matter the cause, no matter the weather Billions spent and who is better off? Only the ones feeding from the political trough The stink will never leave their hands Will our whole country end up the bad lands? LeBuert 2012 ![]() |
