On My Way Home |
I was getting out, without a doubt |
This was my last patrol, wished I could shout |
But then the reds were there |
We were taking our share |
Fifteen to thirty, but fair is fair |
I was fighting wild, shooting blind |
Nothing I could do, nowhere I could go |
Someone yelled, «keep your head down low» |
I heard men crying, knew they were dying |
And for the first time, I realized |
My sergeant lied! |
On my way home in a body bag |
A one-way ticket, but I couldn’t brag |
I was seeing green, seeing red |
With an aching, throbbing, emptiness in my head |
Trying to breathe, I fought for air |
I was alive, but nobody cared |
We left the planet |
Then we had landed |
Soon picked up by an army truck |
Someone gave me a shovel and told me to dig |
I said, «fuck off and die, capitalist pig!» |
