Murder For Hire

Death and dismemberment

that's what they bring

while songs sung of heroes

are the tunes that we sing

Soldier on soldier

a body count is the score

but it's the folks who build weapons

who are winning the wars

It's all about money

satisfying their greed

the rich filling their storehouse

while they haven't the need

Today's wars they're for profit

of money, of land

and the worlds children keep dying

as we strike up the band

When will we stop

will it ever end

war, murder for hire

was not meant as a friend
