There's a prophet on a mountain

And he's making up dinner

With long division and writing crop

Anybody can feel like a winner

When it's served up piping hot

But the people aren't looking for a handout

They're America's working corps

Can this be what they voted for

Let them eat war let them eat war

There's an urgent need to feed declining pride

From the force to the union shops

But the people who benefit most

Are breaking bread with their benevolent hosts

All they ever gave to them was a war

Let them bleed from their necks

Seize a few dollars from the people who sweat

At a job site the boss is God like

Conditioned workhorses park at a stoplight

在信号灯前把车停下来

Seasoned vets with their feet in nets

A stones throw away from a rock fight

Here comes another ration

Feed them death

When there's nothing left to feed them

When it's freedom or it's death
