Take This War and Shove It

            (for Kay Devenish)

Take this war and shove it--
We won't it take it any more,
You, chicken hawks, who love it,
You fight your bloody war.

You thought that you could win it
With cover-ups and lies,
But we'll stand united
Against your evil crimes.

Yes, we've seen those towers
On that September day,
How quickly they went down
In such a perfect way.

No, we don't buy your story--
This war was planned ahead--
For oil and for glory--
With thousands now dead.

Yes, many still remember
That wars lead straight to hell,
And you can't use September
To kill for Israel.

So take this war and shove it--
We won't it take it any more,
You, chicken hawks, who love it,
You fight your bloody war.
