Stand on the corner shaking your fist
Supporting the troops you boldly insist
Support them in theory you’d never enlist
The point of the battle entirely missed
The stand that you take is that this fight is lost
Dismissing the benefits tally the cost
Beyond a line that should never be crossed
Throwing away what should never be tossed
The White House controls us exploiting our fear
The thousands of dead are the news that you hear
Mock and humiliate slander and smear
All your support has been heard crystal clear
Torture and murder are illegal acts
This is the evidence these are the facts
Anything positive merely distracts
The terror is ours and the burden Iraq’s
These are illegal wars we fight
But you still support our boys
Show off our military might
But it’s not the soldiers’ choice
We take away their civil rights
But you still hear the soldiers’ voice
Insurgents overcoming plight
I’m growing sick of all this noise
Killing the innocent ruining lives
All to succumb to our sickening drives
Our bombs and our guns and our tanks and our knives
Orphaning children and widowing wives
So take away funding and take our supplies
Weaken our numbers reducing our size
Support us by bringing about our demise
Supporting the troops in a war you despise
These are illegal wars we fight
But you still support our boys
Show off our military might
But it’s not the soldiers’ choice
We take away their civil rights
But you still hear the soldiers’ voice
Insurgents overcoming plight
I’m growing sick of all this noise
Abandon the soldiers ignore all their cries
Stand on you pedestal peddling your lies
Restating your point every soldier that dies
Our loss you will welcome defeat is your prize
Sacrifice all for political gain
Exploiting the fallen and those that remain
Compassion for no one the spotlight on pain
Victory you look upon with disdain
These are illegal wars we fight
But you still support our boys
Show off our military might
But it’s not the soldiers’ choice
We take away their civil rights
But you still hear the soldiers’ voice
Insurgents overcoming plight
I’m growing sick of all this noise
