Ancora un'altra parodia, di Leda Randolph | |
FORT HOOD THREE'S ANSWER TO THE GREEN BERETS We were asked to fight a war, We were told to pledge our lives, We stand firm, said the Ft. Hood Three, We won't kill the Vietnamese. Side by side we walk as men, Brothers one, until the end, Black and white we think alike, We will save but not take lives. For all those who heed our cause, Tell the world we're not alone, Rally 'round and help us min, Stand with us and we'll all came home. We won't fight a war of lies, Help us fight for what is right, We want all the peoples free, Shout the valiant Fort Hood Three. | MEN WHO DIE Sing if you will -- to America's best With silver wings -- upon their chest Then of pris'ners -- in a torture cell Sing of the land -- we've made a hell. On our way -- we bravely go Toward what end -- we little know War drums roll -- neath a dark'ning sky "Come,young men -- your turn to die." Trained to play the super race Trained to scorn a darker face Trained in all the ways to kill That small nations may know our will. In a but a young wife waits Not knowing what has been his fate Not knowing if she too will live Where bombs are what we have to give. Sing if you will in this bitter hour Sing of the men gone mad with power Then of the child, the sun, the grass Of better days that could came to pass. But on our way we bravely go Toward what end we little know, And war drums roll neath dark'ning sky "Come,young men, your turn to die." |
