lyrics

It's time to spread our beliefs
Across the world unto foreign lands
A pretense for invasion
So we can mine their desert sands

Out come the helicopters
With men rappelling to the ground
Justify our unjust engagement
Keeping the truth behind a shroud

Do what you are told
Purpose of the mold
Fight and kill for gold
Boots on the ground

Everyone is a threat
Wanna place a bet
It isn't over yet
Boots on the ground

Freedom was a lie
Used so you can die
Killing on the fly
Boots on the ground

If their skin is brown
Load up another round
Light up their whole town
Boots on the ground

Let's give them war!

You were told this war was all about fighting for freedom
BOOTS ON THE GROUND
But what freedoms do you really have?
BOOTS ON THE GROUND
How does some poor fuck getting shot in Afghanistan?
BOOTS ON THE GROUND
Translate into you not living on the lam?
BOOTS ON THE GROUND

I'll tell you exactly how, it's all got to do with oil
BOOTS ON THE GROUND
Keep the poorer nations down and put their people in the soil
BOOTS ON THE GROUND
So when America comes calling at your door
BOOTS ON THE GROUND
If you've already dug some graves then dig a few thousand more
BOOTS ON THE GROUND
