Saddam is gone
Khadafy too
The world has changed
From the one we knew
But black’s still black
And blue is blue
It’s our aggression
That we should rue

Past mistakes
We won’t admit
It’s a different day
But the same old ****
Seems we’re looking
To commit
A few more troops
When we should quit

Let’s move forward
Don’t look back
We’ve lost the war
In Iraq
Believe it or not
It’s no less a fact
We can’t give ‘em
What they lack

Democracy
For everyone
Can’t be achieved
Under a gun
One size will never
Fit us all
See we like Rome
Could one day fall
