lyrics

Soldier, || Step in line
face front, || Not at ease
state your name || Kill for fun
and where you're from || Kill for God

Killers || With no face
are not machines || built in court
when they believe || accountable
in the cause || to no God

Raised on guns and bombs and overkill,
Armed Service seems to be the id's backdoor;
the joke's not lost on me

and oh! we ask. they tell.
and oh! oh for shame!
if we really believed, we wouldn't do the things we do in the Name

Tell us || As world grows
the word || your mind shrinks
we found no || they've brought the word
answers in law || to your door

Tell us || manufactured
the word || hysteria
we believed || what you see
in the façade || is not what is

Tell us || it's a cancer
the word || there's a cure
tell us the name || build you up
of your God || break you down

Everybody's out to get to,
everybody's out to get to you!
We have minds but we believe the box
the joke's not lost on me

and oh! we ask. they tell.
and oh! oh for shame!
if we really believed, we wouldn't do the things we do in the Name

What you see is not what is

Beasts and boils || Invite killers
locusts, frogs || into your home
the river turns || cancer's free
to blood || cure will cost

pestilence, vermin || such short time
hail and darkness || so much pain
killing of || sense of humor
the first born || all but lost

Science grants build germs in labs for war!
never thought to make a weapons-grade cure;
the joke's not lost on me

and oh! we ask. they tell.
and oh! oh for shame!
if we really believed, we wouldn't do the things we do in the Name
