"Give cheese some pants!"
\nThe war is over,
\nnow that we all have guns.
\nThe new citizen action army
\nmay dress like they don’t care,
\nbut they’ll kill you in a second
\nif you jive with their peace.
\nWe’ve got several states
\nthat are nothin’ but dead people.
\n"Peace up, Rhode Island!’
\nAnd even though
\nnobody’s wearin’ bars,
\nthe generals will tell you
\nwho they are.
\nThe lieutenants will mostly
\nstay inside.
\nThe sergeants, as always,
\nwill mostly die and kill
\nin even numbers.
\nAnd God help the private sector.<\/p>\n
