Hey!
Yo!
We're the United States
Marines
We know you've all been killing each other
For at least two thousand
years
But we're here now
To protect the family
Of Christian heroin
warlords
Most friendly to the West
So you knock off this fighting
Or we'll tell
Mom
Ever notice news
Is taged like TV wrestling shows
With Reagans and
Khaddafis cast
As cartoon villains and heroes
Or those wildlife
"documentaries"
Where a lion from a zoo
Kills a deer tied down ahead of time
At the
perfect camera angle
When lemmings balk at dying for Disney
They're just hurled off
the cliff...
We are gathered here today
To take photos of the
President
Pretending to mourn these brave young me
Who came home from
Beirut
Gift-wrapped in body bags-
A truck bomb blew them to bits
We knew they
were sitting ducks
We sacrificed 'em, Aztec style
So we could use their dead meat
To
cook up war fever back home
So make sure you take lots of pictures
And slant your
news our way
Just like in Wild Kingdom
We first tied down the prey
We want
people boiling for revenge
In their living rooms
So we can go play
shoot-em-up
Anywhere we choose
And our backers can cash in
Without the public asking
questions
