We go to war this week, the president just said
D    G
By the time you check your email, they’re probably already dead
G   C
But honey don’t you worry, there’s no need to make a fuss
D    G
It’s not really that kind of war you see, it’s not like they’re killing us

Cuz there’s a sick little secret that is the key to our success
We make the guns that make wars but we always keep the best
So they can shoot a man and kill him dead from a hundred yards away
We’ll kill them while they’re in their beds from a button in the usa

C    G
So be proud of us boys abroad, it’s what we’re told to do
D7    G
we’re trained to execute our tasks and sometimes people, too
C    G
and killing’s okay when it’s for the cause ta save our way of life
D7    G   C    G
to stoke the jesusfist machine and show them all we’re right

G   C
It’s a total annihilation, our generals confessed
D    G
We can bomb them until the people are dead and march in to clean up the mess
G   C
With our laser guided missles and long-range bomber planes
D    G
We can turn the infidels into bloody little stains

But then we will rebuild them and then they’re sure to be glad
Because whatever we bring them because it was ours, it’s better than whatever they had
And then they all will thank us for fifty years of misery
Because we brought them mcdonalds in the name of democracy

So be proud of us boys abroad, it’s what we’re told to do
we’re trained to execute our tasks and sometimes people, too
and killing’s okay when it’s for the cause at least that’s what they tell us
like to sell our mcburgers and skin magazines and stabilize prices for gas

G   C
and if the foreign governments can’t learn what jesus taught
D    G
they’ll have to be removed from power unless they can be bought
G   C
It’s a good thing folks forgive us for the lives of their young men
D    G
Cuz we crossed another border and it all starts again

So be proud of us boys abroad, it’s what we’re told to do
we’re trained to execute our tasks and sometimes people, too
And killing’s required to keep your place at the world powers’ table
We might as well keep it going as long as we are able
