Lyrics

Are you believing the morning papers? War is coming back in style There's generals here, advisers there And the Russians nibbling everywhere The chessboard's filling up with red We make more profits when we blow off their heads Economy is looking bad Let's start another war (when ya get drafted) Fan the fires of racist hatred We want total war (when ya get drafted) Drooling fingers, panic buttons Playing with missiles like they're toys There's easy money, easy jobs Especially when you build the bombs That blow big cities off the map Just guess who profits when we build 'em back up Yeah, what Big Business wants Big Business Gets it wants a war (When ya get drafted) Trilateral Commission goonies Laugh and scheme for more (when ya get drafted) Call the Army, call the Navy Stocked with kids from slums (when ya get drafted) If you can't afford a slick attorney We might make you a spy Forget your demonstrations Kids today sit on their ass (when ya get drafted) Just a six-pack and you're happy We're prepared for when ya get drafted When ya get drafted
