It was a ruff night 
                      
Turned into years in an unknown land 
                                
Just a grudge fight 
                                
Cooked up by the DC suites on hand 
                                  
We had a hard time 
             
But we tried to understand 
                                                    
These born-again gunpoint libertines 

                                                            
Then they sold us down the face of the mighty river 
                          
Sold turpentine for tea 
                                     
Hold me now it's the evil liberator 
                                                  
And he's coming with a gang of thieves 

                        
In the firelight 
            
Of the torched out refineries 
                          
He sat upright 
                    
The poster boy for the IMC 
                                                            
A poor man fights and dies for what a rich man only believes 
                                                           
Sure as a blind man does not see the floor 

                                                            
Then they sold us down the face of the mighty river 
                          
Sold turpentine for tea 
                                     
Hold me now it's the evil liberator 
                                                  
And he's coming with a gang of thieves 

                                                                                  
And they say no battleship too big for the war emporium 
                                                                                      
It's give it all you got son and go back to where you're from 
                                                                                   
'Cause we're hiding in the wings, we're the super neocons 
                                                                    
We got bombs and they got barrels of gasoline. 

                       
You know you'll have it coming if you say that there is nothing to see 

                                 
In the desert night 
                                      
They listened for the baying of the hounds 
                                      
But it wasn't quite right 
                          
no sign of the weather underground 
                                                             
And they were keepin' a sharp eye 
          
They never saw what they had found 
                                       
At last it was only you and me 

                                                            
Then they sold us down the face of the mighty river 
                          
Sold turpentine for tea 
                                     
Hold me now it's the evil liberator 
                                                  
And he's coming with a gang of thieves  


                                                                                  
And they say no battleship too big for the war emporium 
                                                                                      
It's give it all you got son and go back to where you're from 
                                                                                   
'Cause we're hiding in the wings, we're the super neocons 
                                                                    
We got bombs and they got barrels of gasoline.
