《Skit 6》歌词

[00:00:00] I tried hard to be proud of my service

[00:00:02] But all I could feel was shame

[00:00:05] Racism could no longer mask the reality of the occupation

[00:00:08] These were people these were human beings

[00:00:10] I've since been plagued by guilt any time I see an elderly man

[00:00:14] Like the one who couldn't walk

[00:00:15] Who we rolled onto a stretcher and told the Iraqi police to take him away

[00:00:19] I feel guilt anytime I see a mother with her children

[00:00:22] Like the one who cried hysterically

[00:00:23] And screamed that we're worse than Saddam

[00:00:25] As we forced her from her home

[00:00:27] I feel guilt anytime I see a young girl

[00:00:30] Like the one I grabbed by the arm and dragged into the street

[00:00:34] We were told we were fighting terrorists

[00:00:37] The real terrorist was me and the real terrorism was this occupation

[00:00:42] Racism within the military has long been an important tool

[00:00:45] To justify the destruction and occupation of another country

[00:00:48] It has long been used to justify the killing subjugation and torture of another people

[00:00:53] Racism is a vital weapon employed by this government

[00:00:56] It is a more important weapon than a rifle a tank a bomber or a battleship

[00:01:01] It is more destructive than an artillery shell or a bunker buster or tomahawk missile

[00:01:07] While all those weapons are created and owned by this government

[00:01:09] They are harmless without people willing to use them

[00:01:12] Those who send us to war do not have to pull the trigger or lob a mortar round

[00:01:16] They do not have to fight the war they merely have to sell the war

[00:01:20] They need a public who's willing to send their soldiers into harm's way

[00:01:23] They need soldiers who are willing to kill and be killed without question

[00:01:27] They can spend millions on a single bomb

[00:01:29] But that bomb only becomes a weapon when the ranks of the military are willing to follow orders to use it

[00:01:34] They can send every last soldier anywhere on Earth but there will only be a war if soldiers are willing to fight
