The American Manhood
(or, what I have learned to become American)
Some say that peace is not all
it is not blood, vomit, and gore,
but it is Bush, Cheney, and Obama
destruction of people and environma
From guilt we don' t feel
nor sores that never heal
From Korea to Vietnam to Iraq to Afganistan
our American boys take their world conquest stand
And so it is blood and vomit and gore
with which we uphold the American pie, flag, and all
Despite all we been taught
that war settles naught
So we continue to kill with a glee
Like fucking for virginity
