[00:23.35] | |
[00:25.96] | Gunnin' with this US of A |
[00:28.65] | |
[00:29.28] | In Iraq and Iran and in Afghanistan |
[00:34.32] | |
[00:41.59] | Does not a day go by |
[00:44.14] | |
[00:45.35] | Without the Israeli Air Force |
[00:48.61] | Fail to drop it's bombs from the sky? |
[00:51.80] | How many mothers to cry? |
[00:54.18] | How many sons have to die? |
[00:56.55] | How many missions left to fly over Palestine? |

[01:06.84] | These are illegal attacks |
[01:09.40] | So bring the soldiers back |
[01:12.07] | These are illegal attacks |

[01:22.02] | |

[01:26.95] | |
[01:28.76] | What mean ya that you beat my people |
[01:32.01] | |

[01:37.19] | |
[01:40.12] | So tell me just how come were the Taliban |
[01:45.36] | |
[01:46.41] | Sat burning incense in Texas |
[01:49.44] | Roaming round in a Lexus |
[01:51.62] | Sittin' on six billion oil drums |
[01:55.19] | Down with the Dow Jones, up on the Nasdaq |
[01:59.86] | Pushed into the war zones |
[02:01.87] | It's a commercial crusade |
[02:03.80] | ‘Cause all the oil men get paid |
[02:06.99] | And only so many soldiers come home |
[02:11.48] | |
[02:12.16] | It's a commando crusade |
[02:14.72] | A military charade |
[02:17.22] | And only so many soldiers come home |
[02:20.92] | |
[02:43.44] | Soldiers, soldiers come home |
[02:50.13] | |
[02:53.57] | Soldiers come home |
[03:00.36] | |

[03:04.49] | Nobody can forget |
[03:06.93] | It ain't the size of the dog in the fight |
[03:10.85] | It's the size of the fight in the dog on the day or the night |
[03:17.18] | There's no time to reflect |
[03:19.62] | On the threat, the situation, the bark nor the bite |
[03:24.85] | These are commercial crusades |
[03:26.97] | ‘Cos all the oil men get paid |
[03:29.85] | These are commando crusades |
[03:32.41] | Commando tactical rape |
[03:35.03] | And from the streets of New York and Baghdad to Tehran and Tel Aviv |
[03:41.30] | Bring forth the prophets of the Lord |
[03:43.94] | From dirty bastards |
[03:45.27] | Fillin' pockets with the profits of greed |
[03:49.03] | These are commercial crusades |
[03:51.58] | Commando tactical raids |
[03:54.15] | Playin' military charades to get paid |
[03:57.68] | |
[04:05.28] | And who got the devils? |
[04:06.97] | |
[04:07.59] | And who got the Lords? |
[04:09.23] | |
[04:10.54] | Build yourself a mountain |
[04:12.90] | Drink up in the fountain |
