Remodeling The Pentagon

Come all ye citizens, gather around
Don't you miss out on the fun
The destruction workers have just broken ground
They're remodeling the Pentagon
That's right, all hail to the military state
Keep terrorism on the run
And to keep up with the high cost of peace
They're remodeling the Sextagon
The generals have to keep up their four tank garage
Payments on a washing-ton machine gun
And to keep up with the high cost of peach
They're remodeling the Septagon
On Wall Street I hear they are now taking bids
For buying off your Congressman
And to keep up with the high cost of peace
They're remodeling the Octagon
They've built another side to the Nonagon
They have plans to keep adding on
Soon it will be the grandest of halls
But by then we will all be gone
Blown to hell!
By then we will all be gone
