War Buddies

Let's be war buddies

Waist deep in big muddies side by side

I'd be the atheist in your foxhole, anytime

Let's be friendly fire

Body count's a mountain on a bed of barbed wire, coldly stacked

As soon as the morning light has broken, then we attack

If nobody tries too hard to kill you

I got your back

Across the desert

Back to brave the burning sand

Back to question every effort

Back to challenge your command

If you got guns, well, now's the time for sticking

Resistance is already forming

The second shot won't be a warning

Let's be collateral damage

Looking down your nose like it's the best you can manage just to stand

Indignity after indignation

The threat of a hostile occupation

The better to form a sovereign nation

Here's the plan:

Let every man who disagrees

Be roughly brought down to his knees

Be starved to death and made to freeze

And sentenced to the Gulag

If you got guns, well, now's the time for sticking

Resistance is already forming

The second shot won't be a warning

When the tanks roll into Warsaw, will I find you at the front

Singing into a tape recorder, shouldering the brunt of the attack?

Has it come to that?

Has it come to that?

Has it come to that?

Has it come to that?
