OLD WAYS OF WAR
(or time to be looking up)
Still wrapping themselves in tanks
old warriors fighting wars on the ground
Like Saddamm and the Taliban soon found
when others struck from the air
the safety just wasn’t there
As armour that they thought would save
became a target and a grave
Still wrapping themselves in flags
Government no longer of, for, or by the people
Like Saddam and the Taliban now find
when others strike from anywhere
the safety just isn’t there
As the land of the free and home of brave
becomes a target and a grave
