She doesn’t care, never forget that
She doesn’t care how or why or even who
The screaming woman holding the charred remains of her life doesn’t give a **** about go **** yourselves 1000th of year of history
She doesn’t care if she saw the tank rolling over her past before it annihilated her present.
She doesn’t care if she didn’t see the bomb drop
All that matters to her is her baby is dead
She doesn’t care if there was bottle rockets near her home, we dropped a smart bomb on it
And it’s we, don’t forget that either, we build the bombs, we build the anguish, we sell death
And what is the price of a mothers anguish?
Campaign money and 2% for your side next election
