Fraidy Cats - Pride in the United States Armed Forces lyrics
I'm just a soldier You don't even know my name I'm just a soldier Ordered to play your game You never spoke about charred bodies IN THE KILLING RAID You said it was my duty AND GOD GIVEN GAIN You said it was a service SO I STOOD UP IN PRIDE You said don't be nervous son BECAUSE YOU'LL NEVER DIE I'm just a soldier you told me not to speak I was just a soldier now I am just a creep You never told of CHILDREN I'D SHOOT You never told of WOMEN I'D USE You never told of DREAMS AT NIGHT You never told of SCREAMS IN THE FIRE LIGHT I'm just a soldier Fought Charlie and the Gooks Fought the Krauts and the Japs and Sadamm's unwilling troops they were all as evil as you told me All as wicked as you told me All as twisted as you told me Till I saw they were as human as me I'm just a soldier I fight my war every night I fight fight Then I cry this can't be my God's way to die Not God's way to die I'm just a soldier I fight my war every night I fight I fight Then I cry this can't be my God's way to die Not my God's way to die Because I've killed I've killed I've raped I've spilled Your war I fought Your pillage bought Your people smoked And your ego stroked My life is dead And my hand's bleed red And who's left to tell That this war is Hell Welcome to my Hell Your bloody murder weapon Your mercenary thug America see what you've done to me See what you've done to me Cuz you left me torn and tattered and bleeding On the shores of Viet Nam and the sands of desert storm America they were our heroes and then you killed them And then you killed them America I will stand proudly on this pedestal of glory and honor and pride Only to bow down in shame |
