Fire, fire, fire
Machine guns on a New York transit line
Except for the youth that’s gone
And don’t let them fool you with their milk and honey
Light up ya lighter bring it home
Higher and higher
Bom, bom, here’s what you get
How many people does a smart bomb kill?
Fire, fire, fire, light up ya lighter
Fire, fire, fire, light up ya lighter
Tellin' you they’re gonna protect you
This one’s nothing like Vietnam
Higher and higher
Yeah you know so light up ya lighter
Fire, fire, fire, light up ya lighter
Fire, fire, fire
Except for the bullets, except for the bombs
Fire, fire, fire, light up ya lighter
The General says, we never miss a shot
While Senators on holiday
Fire, fire, fire, light up ya lighter
Fire, fire, fire, light up ya lighter
So we keep it on 'til ya comin' home
Fire, fire, fire
You might come home with one less leg
In the Afghan hills the rebels still fightin'
So we keep it on 'til ya comin' home
And nobody knows where Osama Bin hidin'
Why do veterans get no respect?
The Army recruiters in the parking lot
They comin' for you everyday
So we keep it on 'til ya comin' home
Take a look at what they spend it on
Fire, fire, fire, light up ya lighter
Higher and higher
No excuses, no illusions
So we keep it on, 'til ya comin' home
Gonna make you money, gonna make you a man
One step forward and two steps back
Higher and higher
The war on terror is a war on peace
Fire, fire, fire, light up ya lighter
Armageddon is a deadly day
So we keep it on, 'til ya comin' home
Fire, fire, fire, light up ya lighter
Opium fields keep providin'
Fire, fire, fire, fire, fire
Higher and higher
And tellin' you that they support the troops
Like we don’t know
Tell me President tell me if you will
Some say engine engine number nine
An M-6 and a Kevlar vest
The press conferences keep on lyin'
So we keep it on 'til ya comin' home
The best heroin that money can buy
Take a look at where your money's gone seen
Hustling kids there jugglin' pot
Fire, fire, fire
Listen young man, listen to my plan
But this thing will surely keep a bullet out of your chest
So come on come on, sign up, come on
One step forward and two steps back
So we keep it on, 'til ya comin' home
No they only want your money
Higher and higher
Fire, fire, fire
Fire, fire, fire
Fire, fire, fire
Fire, fire, fire
Fire, fire, fire
Armageddon is a deadly way
Higher and higher
How many of 'em do you think we got?
Higher and higher
The war for oil is a war for the beast
So we keep it on, 'til ya comin' home
We killin' so efficiently we can’t keep count
Fire, fire, fire
And we never ever ever keep a body count
PTSD and a broken back
