Tommy Gun

Sane Justin

Little boy soldier, Tommy Gun, he'd kill to play "peacekeeper man" 
It's a little game he learned from his dad,
his daddy was a "peacekeeper" in Iraq 
Pretending he's off soldiering, in a distant far off land 
He cocks his gun - he shoots you down 

Murder again, and again, and again 
Teaching the children to murder 

Sunday morning off to church, a red faced preacher sweating words 
This fat old fuck goes on and on, Tommy learns a special lesson 
"Thou shall love thy neighbor, and thou shall never kill 
Void in the name of cash." 

Murder again, and again and again 
Teaching the children to murder 

You're gonna dream tonight little boy,
and in the nightmare you're gonna wake up to think 
THAT'S WHEN YOU GET IT! 
They punish anyone (don't you know?),
who shows any sign of understanding more than the rhetoric 

Just like his dad and his dad's dad before him,
Tommy went off to fight in a war 
And protect his country from an inhumane race,
and an out of sight threat, in a far off place 
And just before Tommy got shot down,
he stopped to think, to ask himself, 
"Are their armies also made up of their poor?" 

Murder again, and again, and again 
Teaching the children to murder
