Chorus
Come on mothers, don’t hold back
Send your sons off to Iraq
Come on fathers, don’t feel bad.
Your daughters too can go to Baghdad.
If they die there they come home free
And nobody has to see.
Chorus
Bush and Cheney, you’ve done your best
You’ve made the Middle East into one big mess.
But that’s okay. You’ve got a plan:
To divert attention, just bomb Iran!
If people start saying they want to impeach
Just pack ‘em off to Gitmo Beach!
Chorus
