- Casualties of war!
Casualties of war; as I approach the barricade
Wheres the enemy? who do I invade?
Bullets of teflon, bulletproof vest rip
Tear ya outta ya frame with a bag full of clips
Cause I got a family that waits for my return
To get back home is my main concern
Ima get back to new york in one piece
But Im bent in the sand that is hot as the city streets
Sky lights up like fireworks blind me
Bullets, whistlin over my head remind me...
President bush said attack
Flashback to nam, I might not make it back
Missile hits the area, screams wake me up
From a war of dreams, heat up the m-16
Basic training, trained for torture
Take no prisoners, and I just caught ya
Addicted to murder, send more bodybags
They cant identify em, leave the nametags
I get a rush when I see blood, dead bodies on the floor
Casualties of war! Casualties of war! Casualties of war! Casualties of war!
Day divides the night and night divides the day
Its all hard work and no play
More than combat, its far beyond that
Cause I got a kill or be killed kind of attack
Areas mapped out, therell be no, stratego
Me and my platoon make a boom wherever we go
But what are we here for? whos on the other side of the wall?
Somebody give the president a call
But I hear warfare scream through the air
Back to the battlegrounds, its war they declare
A desert storm: lets see who reigns supreme
Something like monopoly: a government scheme
Go to the army, be all you can be
Another dead soldier? hell no, not me
So I start letting off ammunition in every direction
Allah is my only protection
But wait a minute, saddam hussein prays the same
And this is asia, from where I came
Im on the wrong side, so change the target
Shooting at the general; and wheres the sergeant?
Blame it on john hardy hawkins for bringing me to america
Now its mass hysteria
I get a rush when I see blood, dead bodies on the floor
Casualties of war! Casualties of war! Casualties of war! Casualties of war!
The war is over, for now at least
Just because they lost it dont mean its peace
Its a long way home, its a lot to think about
Whole generation, left in doubt
Innocent families killed in the midst
Itll be more dead people after this
So Im glad to be alive and walkin
Half of my platoon came home in coffins
Except the general, buried in the storm
In bits and pieces no need to look for em
I played it slick and got away with it
Rigged it up so they would think they did it
Now Im home on reserves and you can bet
When they call, Im going awol
Cause it aint no way Im going back to war
When I dont know who or what Im fighting for
So I wait for terrorists to attack
Every time a truck backfires I fire back
I look for shelter when a plane is over me
Remember pearl harbor? new york could be over, g
Kamikaze, strapped with bombs
No peace in the east, they want revenge for saddam
Did I hear gunshots, or thunder?
No time to wonder, somebodys going under
Put on my fatigues and my camoflouge
Take control, cause Im in charge
When I snapped out of it, it was blood, dead bodies on the floor
Casualties of war! Casualties of war! Casualties of war ! Casualties of war!
