Casualties Of War歌词

[00:09.22]Casualties of war!
[00:18.39]Casualties of war; as I approach the barricade
[00:21.01]Wheres the enemy? who do I invade?
[00:24.01]Bullets of teflon, bulletproof vest rip
[00:25.88]Tear ya outta ya frame with a bag full of clips
[00:28.44]Cause I got a family that waits for my return
[00:30.94]To get back home is my main concern
[00:32.50]Ima get back to new york in one piece
[00:34.87]But Im bent in the sand that is hot as the city streets
[00:37.42]Sky lights up like fireworks blind me
[00:39.74]Bullets, whistlin over my head remind me...
[00:42.05]
[00:42.62]President bush said attack
[00:43.62]
[00:44.25]Flashback to nam, I might not make it back
[00:46.54]Missile hits the area, screams wake me up
[00:48.30]
[00:48.86]From a war of dreams, heat up the m-16
[00:50.85]Basic training, trained for torture
[00:52.67]
[00:53.29]Take no prisoners, and I just caught ya
[00:54.46]Addicted to murder, send more bodybags
[00:56.59]
[00:58.20]They cant identify em, leave the nametags
[00:59.77]
[01:00.29]I get a rush when I see blood, dead bodies on the floor
[01:03.30]
[01:04.41]Casualties of war! Casualties of war! Casualties of war! Casualties of war!
[01:11.91]
[01:14.34]Day divides the night and night divides the day
[01:16.03]
[01:16.90]Its all hard work and no play
[01:18.65]More than combat, its far beyond that
[01:20.15]
[01:20.77]Cause I got a kill or be killed kind of attack
[01:22.95]
[01:23.51]Areas mapped out, therell be no, stratego
[01:25.20]Me and my platoon make a boom wherever we go
[01:27.95]But what are we here for? whos on the other side of the wall?
[01:30.56]Somebody give the president a call
[01:32.00]But I hear warfare scream through the air
[01:34.74]Back to the battlegrounds, its war they declare
[01:36.87]A desert storm: lets see who reigns supreme
[01:39.46]Something like monopoly: a government scheme
[01:40.90]
[01:41.73]Go to the army, be all you can be
[01:43.98]Another dead soldier? hell no, not me
[01:46.19]So I start letting off ammunition in every direction
[01:48.44]
[01:49.07]Allah is my only protection
[01:50.49]But wait a minute, saddam hussein prays the same
[01:53.55]And this is asia, from where I came
[01:55.79]Im on the wrong side, so change the target
[01:57.92]Shooting at the general; and wheres the sergeant?
[02:00.04]Blame it on john hardy hawkins for bringing me to america
[02:02.41]Now its mass hysteria
[02:04.91]I get a rush when I see blood, dead bodies on the floor
[02:08.38]
[02:09.00]Casualties of war! Casualties of war! Casualties of war! Casualties of war!
[02:16.69]
[02:18.93]The war is over, for now at least
[02:20.74]Just because they lost it dont mean its peace
[02:22.87]Its a long way home, its a lot to think about
[02:25.11]Whole generation, left in doubt
[02:27.82]Innocent families killed in the midst
[02:29.95]Itll be more dead people after this
[02:32.31]So Im glad to be alive and walkin
[02:34.00]
[02:35.06]Half of my platoon came home in coffins
[02:36.99]Except the general, buried in the storm
[02:38.98]In bits and pieces no need to look for em
[02:41.54]I played it slick and got away with it
[02:43.91]Rigged it up so they would think they did it
[02:46.16]Now Im home on reserves and you can bet
[02:48.55]When they call, Im going awol
[02:49.73]
[02:50.48]Cause it aint no way Im going back to war
[02:52.91]When I dont know who or what Im fighting for
[02:55.16]So I wait for terrorists to attack
[02:57.53]Every time a truck backfires I fire back
[02:59.96]I look for shelter when a plane is over me
[03:02.18]Remember pearl harbor? new york could be over, g
[03:04.31]Kamikaze, strapped with bombs
[03:05.12]
[03:06.74]No peace in the east, they want revenge for saddam
[03:09.18]Did I hear gunshots, or thunder?
[03:11.05]No time to wonder, somebodys going under
[03:13.49]Put on my fatigues and my camoflouge
[03:15.38]
[03:16.01]Take control, cause Im in charge
[03:18.32]When I snapped out of it, it was blood, dead bodies on the floor
[03:22.68]Casualties of war! Casualties of war! Casualties of war! Casualties of war!
