Letra de ' Gulf War Song ' de Fruvous Moxy

We got a call to write a song about the war in the Gulf,
But we shouldn't hurt anyone's feelings
So we tried, and gave up, cuz there was no such song,
But the trying was very revealing:

What makes a person so poisonous righteous,
That they'd think less of anyone, who just disagrees?
She's just a pacifist, he's just a patriot
If I said you were crazy, would you have to fight me?

Fighters for liberty,
Fighters for power,
Fighters for longer turns in the shower

Don't tell me I can't fight 'cause I'll punch out your lights
And history seems to agree
That I would fight you for me

So we read, and we watched
All the specially selected news,
And we learned so much more about the good guys

"Won't you stand by the flag?"
Was the question unasked,
"Won't you join in and fight with the allies?"

What could we say? We're only 25 years old,
With 25 sweet summers, and hot fires in the cold
This kind of life makes that violence unthinkable
We'd like to play hockey, have kids and grow old

Fighters for Texaco,
Fighters for power,
Fighters for longer turns in the shower

Don't tell me I can't fight 'cause I'll punch out your lights,
And history seems to agree
That I would fight you for me,
That us would fight them for we

He's just a peacenik,
And she's just a war-hawk
That's where the beach was,
That's where the sea

What could we say? We're only 25 years old,
And history seems to agree that I would fight you for me,
That us would fight them for we
Is that how it always will be?
