I normally write inclusive, uniting, uplifting songs that folks who occupy any wing on the political bird can sing along with. Then one night I drank a bit too much tequila and started channeling Woodie Guthrie or someone like him and this song is the result.
Everybody’s got a little habit
Everybody’s got a little need
He don’t inhale, or drink no more
War is the President’s weed (these days)
War is the President’s weed.The rich like prescription drugs
The poor like crack cocaine
The President says, “Come here young folks,
My drug will blow you away (It’s a killer!)
My drug will blow you awayIraq, Iran, Afghanistan
You feel the urge to invade just because you can
You need a fix bad, and it’s starting to show
Is it getting too peaceful, is it feeling too calm?
Are you jonesin’ bad just to drop a bomb
Take a deep breath and let it go
You’ll feel better in the morning if you just say no.Oh yes we like to torture
Yes we like to maim
But when we do we’re sure we’re right
That’s why we’re not the same (as the bad guys)
Why we’re not the same.The Bible says and eye for an eye
The Koran says go kill
If God wants us to hate like Hell
Well then by God we will
Then by God we willChorus
First verseKuwait, Granada or Vietnam
They don’t look like us so it’s not wrong
Explain it once more, and could you talk real slow?
I only use war medicinally
It’s been quite beneficial for my friends and me
It’s fireworks on speed and blow
But you’ll feel better in the morning if you just say noYour mama said it and you know it’s so
You’ll feel better in the morning if you just say noTake a deep breath and let it go
You’ll feel better in the morning if you
Just… say… hey man, you got some Fritos or something?
I could go for some Taco Bell.You fly and I’ll sign you a no bid contract
A billion dollars ought to cover it, don’t you think?
Let’s make it two billion and maybe they’ll throw in some extra guacamole
Lord, I love my guac...
