The World's the War

Music: John Gelardi Soon the world won't have to ask How much impact one assassin has It happened fast,like a match to gas We watched the world take a tragic path I packed my bags,grabbed my cap and mask Mama say goodbye to his strapping lad I'll be coming home with past traumatic stress And the aftermath will have me flashing back To when we felt the blast,and our castle cracked Our defenses shattered,we were collapsing fast And my lungs were filled with ash and acid gas Pockets full of tags from every chap I've stabbed Yes I have regrets,but I had to act Would I rather be dead than adapt to that? Let me rest in peace,where's my casket at I'm not a basket case,this is my habitat We got a knack for massive weapons,that's a fact Won't be long before we're catching falc for that Every trench we made was an effective grave Getting attacked in waves,crashing back to back It's time I take,the wheel and run I'm driving tanks,and wielding guns I'll fly a plane if it means stealing one You can deal with war,can you deal with puns? I'll be making sure this Battlefield is won The war's the world,the world's the war A fire burns,we can't ignore The gears will turn,as we're reborn We are machines with no remorse Skies are dark above me Been through hell and back Fight for king and country And keep your pride if it means death Now listen closely to me soldier When you feel the world on your shoulders You just need to blow off steam! Do you know what to do with that Neebs? Wait a second? Is that magnetic? If you don't know that,then just forget it Attention squad,we're gonna need a medic I can see a jeep I really need to wreck it To destruction,I'm devoted That's why my methods are a bit explosive Cooking a grenade before I throw it Locomotive coming!Duly noted Got an AT rocket, lock and load it Plant some dynamite and wait a moment Hopefully I'll be the one to blow it And if I'm lucky PROMOTED! The war's the world,the world's the war A fire burns,we can't ignore The gears will turn,as we're reborn We are machines with no remorse Skies are dark above me Been through hell and back Fight for king and country And keep your pride if it means death I don't need a cape to be a man of steel But I'm not a hero.,cuz if that was real My disastrous habits wouldn't have appeal When I see destruction,I get battle feels Back on the saddle in the battlefield When I slaughter you,you'll know how cattle feel Who knows how many casualties that'll yield What if we surrender,can we have a deal? That's off the table,save your breath I've been called the ace,where you place your bets I'm a plane guy,ain't a space cadet Your only Call of Duty is to pay your debts I'm declaring war,you're just making threats I'm the hype train you ain't derailing yet Stay away from places that my tank can get I'll break your walls down and pave the way with treads You'll make a great display on my bayonet A whole generation felt lost Returned home,broken shell shocked From the bunkers we fell into Hell's maw Showed dark side no one else saw The blood of friend is on my hands It's not the time for sitting on the fence Even if you want,you can't hop a trench So just put your foot down on some Ottomans If they're on our land,we'll defend it And then we'll implemented methods Meant for impairing our enemies' senses While preparing our weapons and wrenches For repairing the mess in our engines Killin' Jerry's and wreckin' their census Then I'll carry my friends to protection And bury the rest in the trenches The war's the world,the world's the war A fire burns,we can't ignore The gears will turn,as we're reborn We are machines with no remorse Skies are dark above me Been through hell and back Fight for king and country And keep your pride if it means death
