 Casualties of war!



Casualties of war; as I approach the barricade

Where's the enemy?  who do I invade? 

Bullets of teflonbulletproof vest rip

Tear ya outta ya frame with a bag full of clips

Cause I got a family that waits for my return

To get back home is my main concern

I'ma get back to new york in one piece

But I'm bent in the sand that is hot as the city streets

Sky lights up like fireworks blind me

Bulletswhistlin over my head remind me...

President bush said attack

Flashback to namI might not make it back

Missile hits the areascreams wake me up

From a war of dreamsheat up the m-16

Basic trainingtrained for torture

Take no prisonersand I just caught ya

Addicted to murdersend more bodybags

They can't identify emleave the nametags

I get a rush when I see blooddead bodies on the floor

Casualties of war! (4x)



Day divides the night and night divides the day

It's all hard work and no play

More than combatit's far beyond that

Cause I got a kill or be killed kind of attack

Area's mapped outthere'll be nostratego

Me and my platoon make a boom wherever we go

But what are we here for?  who's on the other side of the wall? 

Somebody give the president a call

But I hear warfare scream through the air

Back to the battlegroundsit's war they declare

A desert storm: let's see who reigns supreme

Something like monopoly: a government scheme

Go to the armybe all you can be

Another dead soldier?  hell nonot me

So I start letting off ammunition in every direction

Allah is my only protection

But wait a minutesaddam hussein prays the same

And this is asiafrom where I came

I'm on the wrong sideso change the target

Shooting at the general; and where's the sergeant? 

Blame it on john hardy hawkins for bringing me to america

Now it's mass hysteria

I get a rush when I see blooddead bodies on the floor

Casualties of war! (4x)



The war is overfor now at least

Just because they lost it don't mean it's peace

It's a long way homeit's a lot to think about

Whole generationleft in doubt

Innocent families killed in the midst

It'll be more dead people after this

So I'm glad to be alive and walkin

Half of my platoon came home in coffins

Except the generalburied in the storm

In bits and pieces no need to look for em

I played it slick and got away with it

Rigged it up so they would think they did it

Now I'm home on reserves and you can bet

When they callI'm going awol

Cause it ain't no way I'm going back to war

When I don't know who or what I'm fighting for

So I wait for terrorists to attack

Every time a truck backfires I fire back

I look for shelter when a plane is over me

Remember pearl harbor?  new york could be overg

Kamikazestrapped with bombs

No peace in the eastthey want revenge for saddam

Did I hear gunshotsor thunder? 

No time to wondersomebody's going under

Put on my fatigues and my camoflouge

Take controlcause I'm in charge

When I snapped out of itit was blooddead bodies on the floor

Casualties of war! (4x)
