There's no V in Ietnam, at least not for us
         We just made noise lost money and fuss.

            If only they’d let us send them a nuke
        Afghan’s are hounds that we must rebuke.

       Now we have Kim and he won’t back down
          So Nuking Kabul might make him frown.

       Draining the pond like the South China Sea
             Might take a bit longer, even for me.

       We thought we were great, really, we’re not
             The world is in laughter at our silly lot.

     It is more of the same, body bags by the score
  With everyone cheering each time there’s one more.

      We trusted in God but he’s not what he seem’s
      Allah has woke us from our impossible dreams.
      
         It is time to accept, that world is not ours
And the grave of our empire is bereft of all flowers.
