Don't simply believe what you're government says
They will manipulate you if they can
You have been sent by dishonest men
It is the flames of war they fan
Go now and lay down your life for us
It's easy for them to say
Kill or be killed
It is never politicians who have to pay
You have been told this is a purpose great
But do you know the truth
You are being sent to secure the oil
And through away your youth
The men in power have no scruples
They are backed by business and wealth
They desire new markets and influence
So you must lose your health
There they sit safe and sound
Back home in their safe places
So easy for them to send you there
And hide their guilty faces
Don't simply accept what your government says
They are liars all
They have no conscience, heart or shame
Will you REALLY kill for oil?
