Can You Feel It?

It's coming
Can you feel it?

Sure as I'm writing this
The draft is coming

As soon as the war
Includes Iran
And Syria
And North Korea

There will be a draft

And by that time
People will accept it

By that time
There will be no stopping it

War production will gear up

Body bags will pile up

Everywhere will spread
The atmosphere of war

And resistance
Will not be tolerated

A spirit of winning
Will take hold

Ben Laden and Bush
Will smile

They'll have their
Armageddon

They'll have their showdown

And we will go down
Like sheep

Young men and women
Will go

To the Middle
And Far East

It will be called
A great war
For the salvation
Of civilization

And you and I
Will pay for it

Oh, we will pay for it
And pay for it
And pay for it

And so will
Generations to come

And the grinding wheel
Of human self-degradation
Will continue

It's coming
Can you feel it?
