Peace Encore

"Give cheese some pants!"
The war is over,
now that we all have guns.
The new citizen action army
may dress like they don’t care,
but they’ll kill you in a second
if you jive with their peace.
We’ve got several states
that are nothin’ but dead people.
"Peace up, Rhode Island!’
And even though
nobody’s wearin’ bars,
the generals will tell you
who they are.
The lieutenants will mostly
stay inside.
The sergeants, as always,
will mostly die and kill
in even numbers.
And God help the private sector.
