Fires burning bright light
up the skies above Kabul
and across the land tonight,
women and children run, take cover.
As airplanes circle low,
people turn to desperation
when your back's against the wall,
you can only scream so loud !
Halfway 'round the world,
swine dine on the flesh of innocents.
In their palaces of gold,
they watch the world crumble around them.
We must win this war,
jump-start the economy.
All the while people
everywhere are suffering !
So when you sit home tonight,
watching your made-for-TV-war,
doesn't it feel so fake,
crazy and far away?
Maybe it's time to wake up
and help those in need !
