Potshot Heard Round The World Lyrics

Hey! Yo! We're the United States Marines We know you've all been killing each other For at least two thousand years But we're here now To protect the family Of Christian heroin warlords Most friendly to the West So you knock off this fighting Or we'll tell Mom Ever notice news Is taged like TV wrestling shows With Reagans and Khaddafis cast As cartoon villains and heroes Or those wildlife "documentaries" Where a lion from a zoo Kills a deer tied down ahead of time At the perfect camera angle When lemmings balk at dying for Disney They're just hurled off the cliff... We are gathered here today To take photos of the President Pretending to mourn these brave young me Who came home from Beirut Gift-wrapped in body bags- A truck bomb blew them to bits We knew they were sitting ducks We sacrificed 'em, Aztec style So we could use their dead meat To cook up war fever back home So make sure you take lots of pictures And slant your news our way Just like in Wild Kingdom We first tied down the prey We want people boiling for revenge In their living rooms So we can go play shoot-em-up Anywhere we choose And our backers can cash in Without the public asking questions
