The more things change, the more they stay the same. And yes, my band plays this version of the song:
Come on all of you big strong men Uncle Sam needs your help again he's getting himself in a terrible jam way over yonder in Iran so put down your beers and pick up a gun we're gonna have a whole lotta fun
(CHORUS) And it's one, two, three, what are we fighting for don't ask me I don't give a damn, next stop gonna be Iran And it's five, six, seven, open up the pearly gates Well... there ain't no time to wonder why, whoopee we're all gonna die
Come on Christian Soldiers, better move fast your big chance has come at last now you can go and shoot Haji in the head cos the only good heathen is one that's dead and you know that peace can only be won when we've blown 'em all to kingdom come
Chorus
Come on Halliburton don't be slow Hey Carlyle, the war's a go! there's plenty good money to be made by "supplying" the army with the tools of trade let's hope and pray that if they drop the bomb, they drop it on old Tehran
Chorus
Come on mothers throughout the land pack your boys off to Iran come on fathers don't hesitate send your daughters off before it's too late and you can be the first ones on your block to have your kid come home in a box
Chorus
All right!
