[bodytext] => Listen up soldiers This war calls your name Hear those bombs falling They are your claim to fame See those people fleeing They are your enemies Shoot them with this knife Slash them with these bullets Burn them with your flame Catapults of rage, pull it! Do not let them escape Corner them in the fields They are immigrants of their own land Foreigners among their own crops Deserters and traitors of the command Set up a perimeter, a soldier’s wall They will fight you were you stand Trigger fastened until you fall Your replacement will be on call In his bunk prayin’ That you got them all We are movin’ out men! Get yourself geared Ok, over there, you ten! You guys are comin’ with me Don’t ask no questions And ill tell you only half truths Don’t make any predictions And they won’t have to kill you Keep you lips sealed Don’t scream a word Keep your weapons drawn forward Like the Samurai sword Keep your focus Your eyes do the talking One mistake, could cost us This is your final warning You have been trained Preparing for this day Your mission is essential The enemies are headed your way Do not panic Listen to me You are soldiers of fortune You belong in the hands of victory Yet, unfortunately Some of you will not return This is the accepted cost That will never be atoned If you fail If you die You will die nameless And so will I If you succeed You may end up homeless On the streets of New York Finally home You a soldier unworthy They won’t even throw you a bone [comments] => 1 [counter] => 154 [topic] => 43 [informant] => jyssvw22 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )
