Warschach

Armies and conquests

Military bomb fests

Age-old push-up contest

                                      Pharaohs and kings

                                      Courses set of empire whims,

                                      Whip, whip, whip

                                      Chariot and horses

                                      Death and killing the enforces

Swords swung

Bayonets flung

Cut out the MOTHERS tongue

The FATHERS rape is done  

Bodies hung

Victories sung

                     To the death of the YOUNG.

Tanks hum, hum, hum

Triggers and drones drum drummer drum

                                          Life lost and nothing won

                                          The kill is done

                                          Saluted and flagged

                                          Numbered and tagged

Soft flesh penetrated

                                With hot lead

                                In your leg,

                                                  In the head,

                                                  Instant dead!

Hearts of napalm

Carry on and keep calm

Drop a nuclear A-Bomb

Repeat your mantras

                                     Hate Islam!

Conquer, multiply, divide

Anthem with pride,

Freedom is the kill one side

A Kill to be FREE

RESISTANCE

A Kill for greed

EXISTENCE

It’s all up for spoil

Get that oil

War is the victor

In getting richer

Murder runs the globe

Get the picture?
