lyrics

War is a game
the powerful wage,
Whose wages are paid
in innocent blood.
Their ivory towers
rise, safe from the fray.
Ask yourself "Why do I do this?"
And go Back To The Mud!

Say one thing for The Land of the Free,
say it gives no quarter.
Unless, of course, you find yourself
within arbitrary borders.
I think that we all get it now.
They choose why, we show how.
You feel the sweat fall from your brow.

Armed forces are toys
for misbehaved boys,
to draw lines on a map
of their favorite colour.
Should you dare try and squelch
their petulant yelps
they'll damn well let you know
what it means to be "other."

Say one thing for The Home of the Brave,
say it loves its prisms.
A single beam refracted out
into manufactured schisms.
I think that we all know the rest.
Destiny manifests.
You feel the bile rising in your chest

War is a game
the powerful wage.
War is a game.
War is nothing but a fucking game.

Say one thing for Amerik-k-ka,
say that it's been poisoned.
The antidote is nothing short of
Pure Annihilation.
I think that we've all had enough.
You play your hand, I'll call your bluff.
Suddenly you don't look so tough.
We'll sac the diamonds in this rough.
Your mate is checked.
Your wrists are cuffed.

War is a Game!
