Halliburton Boardroom Massacre

I joined the army when high school was through[00:00:03]

I didn't know what else to do[00:00:06]

Thought I'd take care of that traveling jones[00:00:10]

Then maybe take out some student loans[00:00:12]

They sent me away to the land of the dead[00:00:15]

Where I didn't know a word that they said[00:00:18]

I got shot at a lot I was nearly toast[00:00:22]

But it's the ones that I killed that hurts the most[00:00:25]

Most of the time I didn't know what was going on[00:00:28]

The rest of the time I knew there was something going wrong[00:00:32]

Every reason we were there turned out to be a lie[00:00:35]

I thought of that each time I saw another person die[00:00:38]

I was supposed to stay for a year they kept me for four[00:00:54]

By the time I got back home no one knew me anymore[00:00:57]

Of the man I once was there didn't seem to be a trace[00:01:00]

And when I looked me in the mirror I didn't recognize my face[00:01:04]

I wasn't home too long before the time that I fell ill[00:01:07]

It was like the air was thick as mud and I ached enough to kill[00:01:10]

I didn't know I'd been fighting in a nuclear war[00:01:13]

DU was in my blood and I was knocking on death's door[00:01:17]

I can't tell you how it felt to be betrayed at every turn[00:01:20]

Like the earth was spinning backwards like my heart began to burn[00:01:23]

Like I had to do something while I still had the strength to stand[00:01:26]

While I still could run with a machine gun in my hand[00:01:30]

I thought of Halliburton and the military brass[00:01:46]

And the things they get away with all for their ruling class[00:01:49]

But I'm not a pawn and I can't just let it be[00:01:52]

And if I'm gonna die I'm gonna take some of them f***ers with me[00:01:55]

I'll spare you the details I did what I had to do[00:01:58]

There's a boardroom blown to hell and soon I will be too[00:02:01]

You can say I lost it you can say that I'm insane[00:02:05]

But may no one ever say that my death was in vain[00:02:08]

I joined the army when high school was through[00:02:11]

I didn't know what else to do[00:02:14]
