We Always Need Another War

We absolutely need a war to divert our innate urge to violence away from bosses, friends and family

Conflict is good for our economy what with all the fulltime soldiering work and WMD-manufacturing

We can co-opt our best scientific minds into inventing brilliant new methods of hideous destruction

Humanity’s aggression against all things just happens naturally - Look: It always has and it always will

Each new litter needs to prove itself as men, and just where and why is actually quite immaterial

And never forget that we got The One True God at our backs, goading us on to righteous slaughter

The flame of vengeance, revenge and retaliation is easily maintained across many generations

Just like those felines we so admire, we are genetically programmed to kill it, if it moves

We don’t even have to glorify bloodshed with hymn and anthem, for our violence has a life of its own

It’s a proven scientific fact that there’s just no point wasting money researching ways to control it

Thus, freedom-loving leaders of the world will always sacrifice other’s children for their own vanity

Luckily, mankind has few other real issues and otherwise things are going so very well for us…LOL!

There’s always been at least one treacherous, lying, child-eating out-group for each tribe or nation

Buddy, aint no shame to preemptively-defensive wars of liberation, what with god on our side

We’ll cluck over sad collateral damage as we gape in ignorant wonder at his mysterious ways

Meanwhile great leaders maintain our focus on awful boogeymen so we can ignore our real problems

Damn, we need a war, it’s been at least what, ten years or so and domestic violence is increasing

TV genocides and internecine slaughters way far away caint really satisfy our needs here at home

We require calls to patriotic sacrifice and caskets coming back to small towns in censored honor

Our kids look for that next group of brain-damaged, PTSD-suffering, drugged amputees to salute

Its so deeply satisfying to be trained to better enact the instincts we’ve been bred to for so long

We don’t just want a war, we really need it, just like a man needs a good orgasm every few days

Always looking forward to that mythical Big One, the one that God prophesied shall end them all

Yup, mothers still wail and cry, but even so, they raise up boys who are eager to run off and die

And it’s such rich grist for stirring tributes, great works of literature and violently-uplifting movies

Goddamn, we just need to kill each other off, right along with anything else that lives or grows

It’s the hallmark of our success as the apex of both evolution and god’s will here on this planet

Nonetheless, those directing our sacrifice must spend lots of time convincing us we do not die in vain

What would we do with all this overpriced military hardware anyway: Beat it into plowshares? Right.

Then how would we keep our own young men from slashing our throats and simply taking our riches

So what if when they come back they cant sleep and will never even be able to talk about it?

Plus, we got this cozy arrangement with the phony churches to bless our wars for tax exemptions

I know we need a war when I just want to shoot some mongeyfonga over a mall parking space

We simply have to direct our overpowering, innate blood lust outside our own pack or we will perish

Why struggle with math and science: The killing fields beckon young immortals to bravery and honor

Train them to react with deadly fire and then just tell them to go on home and raise good families

Set Our Rulers Free Of Our Servitude

Said the price of freedom had to be eternal vigilance and war is an immutable part of our genetics

Said there is no other choice but blood sacrifice and no alternative but to go off and fight: For them

Said we got to be ever ready or our enemies will be upon us: Attacking, slaughtering and enslaving us

Said the bad guys are always on the verge of reigning over us in an unholy and totalitarian terror

Well now, who would the losers really be, in the long run, if all their projected fears came true?

Let’s say we don’t fight, but just peacefully resist until they kill us all. OK, where will they be then?

Who would do the good work keeping the world running safe and warm, supporting their delusions?

Who’d farm the scorched earth for nothing and rebuild their bombed arms factories for a pittance?

We could leave them alone and let them see how far they get and how long they would really last

Let their greed, violence and anger be the sole driver in developing our precious humanity

Leave them alone at each other’s lying throats, without us to convince, manipulate and sacrifice

Let their violent genes and selfish traits monopolize so only their gifted spawn enjoy what happens

What is our real loss after being slaves to the selfishly-vacuous fantasies of mouthy control freaks?

Really, to what end does this eternal and vicious cycle based upon their sociopathic needs continue?

So, how long will the manipulators remain without legions of honest and hard-working minions?

Wait…Perhaps a better world would emerge given the final and pure ascendancy of their kind: LoL

Maybe…But, without the cheering crowds, cheap labor and vast armies, wont their game grow dull?

For with no audience to listen and no subjects to control, what, then, is the real point of their lives?

And who would now perform the myriad of mundane tasks which have always been beneath them?

And, in the end, what have we, the passive, patient drones, actually lost in tossing off our serfdom?

Gosh, there’d be no writers for their clever and well-delivered hot air speeches – and no audience

Clearly, propagandizing only to each other without legions of cheering supporters won’t satisfy them

So their genocides and purges would only wipe out their own kind: Wow, that would be truly terrible!

Right… Can’t you just picture them painfully bent over in the rice fields, with no peasants to rule?

So why bring up more good kids in honest poverty to be sacrificed to their petty, ego-driven disputes?

Go on about your real business and leave them to stand up for themselves against their own vile kind

And should they call upon you for god, family and country, force them to lead in real battle as well

Really, give them the entire world and see just how they adjust to the new necessity of honest work

So, let’s set them free of the addiction to our slavery to feed their attention-seeking insecurity

Liberate them like the parents of twentysomething drug addicts – by not supporting their habit

Yup, the tough love of having them do their own lowlife tasks might even have some benefit

And if that doesn’t fix things, well, we wont be left still suffering from their cankered obsessions

Stop feeding their eternal and hopeless need to fill the insecurity that threatens them so much

An end to their marketed catchphrases and expensive slogans meant to enslave our imaginations

Grant them their freedom from our servitude and maybe we can finally actualize our own potentials

It’s the destructive co-dependency of the honestly-faithful and the amorally-insecure that must end

Let the evangelical Christians raise their own private armies if they still need to wage holy wars

Cage Wolfowicz and Rove down at Guantanamo with the rest of their unlawful combatants

Have George explain before the cameras how God privately counseled him into this sickening mess

Be brave like our boys and quit trembling over those made-up-for-tv bogeyman lead stories

Make them pay dearly for stupidly offering up a nation rich in petroleum to immoral terrorists

Force them to finally listen to those who dared say an invasion would invite in the Jihadists
