SING IT to the tune of Glory of Love

You’ve got to show // your power,
Prove // your power,
And if they fight back, abuse // your power,
That’s the story of , that’s the glory of war!

You’ve got to take // the cities,
Shake // the cities,
Go and pillage and rape // the cities,
That’s the story of, that’s the glory of war.

And you don’t think about civilians,
It’s just the cost of war.
And if they lose a few, there’s millions.
They won’t miss a few more.

You’ve got to (kick) bomb a little,
(Kick) kill a little,
Shock and awe the other side a little,
That’s the story of, that’s the glory of,
That’s the story of, that’s the glory of,
That’s the story of , that’s the glory of WAR!
