    Story Behind the Song
    Had the music for a few weeks before and decided to write the song about war, lyrics were written one morning in about an hour, were modified slightly as recording demanded.

    Lyrics
    What makes my blood boil
    Is it really just about oil?
    The dead covered by soil
    Rattlesnakes recoil

    Money or religion
    Make your decision
    Kill with precision
    Your mind's God has forgiven
    Sometimes killin's just part of livin'

    Mothers and daughters cry
    While others they just sigh
    Bodies pile up so high
    Did they really have to die?

    Send them home in a bag
    Wrapped inside their country's flag
    People chant "What a drag"
    Some even have the gall to brag

    Everyone loses in war
    Body count is the score
    Are you satisfied you whore?
    Tell me "What are we fighting for?"

    Lives end because of lies
    Future generations will rise
    What have we learned?
    Everybody's been burned
    Who's to blame?
    When we're all the same
    Such a damn shame
    We keep playing a caveman's game

    There's no winner in war
    Like all the sinners before
    Evil keeps shouting for more
    Gonna lead you to death's door

    It's just power corruption and lies
    That end innocent lives
    Doesn't it make you recoil?
    That it's really just about oil

    It's war on T.V.
    For everyone to see
    It's a reality show
    Starring GI Joe
    Who's gonna win?
    Who's gonna commit the most sin?

    Sleeping dogs wait
    While hate begets hate
    Till it's time to open the gate
    Is war always our fate?

    Skin them all to the bone
    Can't draw blood from a stone
    Bodies are just on loan
    Our souls have to atone

    You want to smoke evil out of its hole
    Like it's a gopher or mole
    Well the evil within is where to begin
    Project your own sin on someone else's skin

    Let's count the dead
    See who's ahead
    Fill them with lead
    Put them to bed
    Bum bum ba bum
    Bomb bomb bomb you
    Bum bum ba bum
    We're gonna bomb you
    We're gonna bomb ...
    Attack
    Die you bastards!

    It's a victory for the brave
    Think of all the lives you saved
    Dancing madly on a grave
    Thickens your skin
    Helps to keep the hatred in
