Potshot Heard 'Round The World |
Jello Biafra/East Bay Ray) |
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 |
