Lyrics and music by Mark Gunnery
– What did you do in the war, mom?
What did you do in the war?
Because I've got to know
I'm asking you, so
What did you do in the war? –

– I went to college during the war
I learned and cried and had fun
And I gritted my teeth in quiet disbelief
'cause I didn't know what I could've done –

– What did you do in the war, kid?
What did you do in the war?
Because I've got to know
I'm asking you so
What did you do in the war? –

– I walked out of my middle school
Got beaten up by the cops
I organized, got radicalized
Kicked recruiters out of the parking lot –

– So what did you do in the war, grandpa?
What did you do in the war?
Because I've got to know
I'm asking you, so
What did you do in the war? –

– Well I fought in the South Pacific
To keep our country free
Now won't you be a dear
And grab me another beer
And watch the TV with me? –

– What did you do in the war, cousin?
What did you do in the war?
Because I've got to know
I'm asking you, so
What did you do in the war? –

– Don't ask what he did in the war
It's better that he doesn't tell
We're just glad that he's home,
Now leave him alone
His nightmares are giving him hell –


So what will you do in the war?
What will you do in the war?
Because I've got to know
I'm asking you, so
What will you do in the war?!
