Come join us, and we will
give you a free uniform
We will teach you to kill and
you will be transformed
We will teach you to obey,
and carry out orders
Even if they are wrong, and
could be called murder
Come join us, as we kill
children with drones
Kill their parents too and
destroy their homes
The “rule of law and human
rights,” does not apply
When we send corporate made
hellfire, down from the sky
We will train you to bomb and
invade other countries
Destroying them completely,
as corporate cannibals make money
You will help them make their
obscene bloodstained profits
As you fight and perhaps die,
amidst exploding rockets
War is a game and it needs
you to participate
You are the “boots on the
ground” the servants of the state
You will help create refugees
and hell upon earth
Conditioned to obey: for all
that is bloody “worth”!
You will “own the podium” in
these “games of war”
While others get baubles on
the Olympic shores
The masses need “bread and circuses”
to divert their attention
As you kill, bomb and maim in
other directions
Still, orders are orders and
you are willing to serve
As the think tanks, the
politicians and the corporations observe
Like the people you kill, you
are disposable too
Are you in the hands of a
sick hellish crew?
They have been known to
finance both sides in war
But they don’t take part in
all the atrocities and gore
They need you to do their
dirty work without any fuss
So please, please hurry, and
come and join us
