    Come you masters of war
    You that build the big guns
    You that build the death planes
    You that build all the bombs
    You that hide behind walls
    You that hide behind desks
    I just want you to know
    I can see through your masks.

    You that never done nothin'
    But build to destroy
    You play with my world
    Like it's your little toy
    You put a gun in my hand
    And you hide from my eyes
    And you turn and run farther
    When the fast bullets fly.

    Like Judas of old
    You lie and deceive
    A world war can be won
    You want me to believe
    But I see through your eyes
    And I see through your brain
    Like I see through the water
    That runs down my drain.

    You fasten all the triggers
    For the others to fire
    Then you set back and watch
    When the death count gets higher
    You hide in your mansion'
    As young people's blood
    Flows out of their bodies
    And is buried in the mud.

    You've thrown the worst fear
    That can ever be hurled
    Fear to bring children
    Into the world
    For threatening my baby
    Unborn and unnamed
    You ain't worth the blood
    That runs in your veins.

    How much do I know
    To talk out of turn
    You might say that I'm young
    You might say I'm unlearned
    But there's one thing I know
    Though I'm younger than you
    That even Jesus would never
    Forgive what you do.

    Let me ask you one question
    Is your money that good
    Will it buy you forgiveness
    Do you think that it could
    I think you will find
    When your death takes its toll
    All the money you made
    Will never buy back your soul.

    And I hope that you die
    And your death'll come soon
    I will follow your casket
    In the pale afternoon
    And I'll watch while you're lowered
    Down to your deathbed
    And I'll stand over your grave
    'Til I'm sure that you're dead.

    I saw her standin on her front lawn just twirlin her baton
    Me and her went for a ride sir and ten innocent people died

    From the town of lincoln nebraska with a sawed-off .410 on my lap
    Through to the badlands of wyoming I killed everything in my path

    I can't say that Im sorry for the things that we done
    At least for a little while sir me and her we had us some fun

    The jury brought in a guilty verdict and the judge he sentenced me to death
    Midnight in a prison storeroom with leather straps across my chest

    Sheriff when the man pulls that switch sir and snaps my poor neck back
    You make sure my pretty baby is sittin right there on my lap

    They declared me unfit to live said into that great void my sould
    Be hurled
    They wanted to know why I did what I did
    Well sir I guess there's just a meanness in this world

    And instead of talking about shit that actually matters, Republicans have people talking about this. Mission accomplished, Karl Rove.

    Agreed. That's why I sequestered it in the Journalism Topics Only ghetto instead of dignifying it with a slot in Sports and News.

    I kind of want to post the lyrics to Bullet The Blue Sky and Delia's Gone, but I think folks get the idea.

    I'm not sure that inviting this guy was the greatest idea ever, but I also don't think there's any way you can make a big deal about it without sounding like an idiot.
