Are you believing the morning papers?
War is coming back in style
There´s generals here, advisors there
And Russians nibbling everywhere
The chessboard´s filling up with red
We make more profits when we blow off their heads
Economy is looking bad
Let´s start another war /when ya get drafted
Fan the fires of racist hatred
We want total war /when ya get drafted
Drooling fingers
Panic buttons
Playing with missiles like they´re toys
There´s easy money, easy jobs
Especially when you build the bombs
That blow big cities off the map
Just guess who profits /when we build ´em back up
Yeah, what Big Business wants Big Business gets
It wants a war /when ya get drafted
Trilateral Commission goonies laugh
and scheme for more /when ya get drafted
Call the Army!
Call the Navy!
Stocked with kids from slums /when ya get drafted
If you can´t afford a slick attorney
We might make you a spy
Forget your demonstrations
Kids today sit on their ass /when ya get drafted
Just a six-pack
And you´re happy
We´re prepared
For when ya get drafted
War is coming back in style
There´s generals here, advisors there
And Russians nibbling everywhere
The chessboard´s filling up with red
We make more profits when we blow off their heads
Economy is looking bad
Let´s start another war /when ya get drafted
Fan the fires of racist hatred
We want total war /when ya get drafted
Drooling fingers
Panic buttons
Playing with missiles like they´re toys
There´s easy money, easy jobs
Especially when you build the bombs
That blow big cities off the map
Just guess who profits /when we build ´em back up
Yeah, what Big Business wants Big Business gets
