Lyrics

Ain’t never seen no general on the battlefield, marchin’ in time
Ain’t never seen no general on the battlefield, marchin’ in time
Ain’t never seen no arms dealer, in the unemployment line

Never seen no combat helmet, on the head of no congressman
Never seen no combat helmet, on the head of no congressman
Never seen no senator’s son, with a rifle in his hand

Ain’t seen no bombs on Wall Street, never seen the stock market burn
Ain’t seen no bombs on Wall Street, never seen the stock market burn
Ain’t never seen no CEO, in the triage, waitin’ his turn

I seen a Desert Storm soldier, with a medal for his tour in Iraq
I seen a Desert Storm soldier, with a medal for his tour in Iraq
He took his two legs to the war, but he only brought one back

I see the defense secretary at the parade, blowin’ and kissin’
I see the defense secretary at the parade, blowin’ and kissin’
I see a veteran in the crowd on a crutch, with one leg missin’

Let the punishment fit the crime, when the crimes are illegal wars
Let the punishment fit the crime, when the crimes are illegal wars
Your honor, the prosecution rests, the convict is yours
