Holy War ( Iraq ‘n Roll)
L.J N. 2008
(Shia on the left, Sunni on the right,
Better stay down, better cover your head
(Shia on the left, Sunni on the right,
Lotta people gonna end up dead
Shia on the left , Sunni on the right,
No one even knows what they’re fighting for
Shia on the left , Sunni on the right,
Right in the middle of a Holy War)
“Support the troops” is what conservatives say
We could support them by getting ‘em out of harm’s way
Doesn’t seem to be any sort of exit strategy
A Hundred Year war ain’t the way it should be
Our soldiers are brave, defending our freedom
But our leaders haven’t given ‘em much to believe in
Too many bad decisions have taken their toll
Time to bring ‘em all home, let’s Iraq and Roll
(Shia on the left, Sunni on the right,
Better stay down better cover your head
(Shia on the left, Sunni on the right,
Lotta people gonna end up dead
Shia on the left , Sunni on the right,
No one even knows what they’re fighting for
Shia on the left , Sunni on the right,
We’re right in the middle of a Holy War)
The will of the people ended war in Vietnam,
Not tanks or AK-47s, not even bombs
Our leaders took a stand, turned out to be a bad decision
‘cause the other side was ready for a war of attrition
Once again we find ourselves as strangers in a strange land
But instead of jungle warfare we’re just stuck in the sand
When history is written it’s the victor who’s the writer
‘Cause one man’s terrorist is another’s freedom fighter
Do people really get the leadership that they deserve
Saddam came into power with our weapons in reserve
Even Presidents can benefit from history lessons
Playing global chess can end up causing total repression
Our goal is to protect our interests everywhere
A vision that’s reflected in the rockets red glare
We’re pouring money guns and people down an endless hole
Time to bring em all home, let’s Iraq and Roll
(Shia on the left, Sunni on the right,
Better stay down better cover your head
Shia on the left , Sunni on the right,
Lotta people gonna end up dead
Shia on the left , Sunni on the right,
No one even knows what they’re fighting for
Shia on the left , Sunni on the right,
We’re right sin the middle of a Holy War)
