Little Toy Soldiers

Because politicians like to play house

Soldiers for nothing.
Soldiers for fun.
Killing for nothing.
Shooting with guns.
Fires start burning.
Bombs will fall.
Murder makes money.
Death cannot be stalled.

Little toy soldiers
Firing tiny toy guns.
Converge on a dollhouse
Owned by no one.
Taking the lives
Of imaginary children
In an imaginary place.
The childish ones
Who play this game
Never show their face.

This is so petty.
This hurts so much.
We shouldn’t send our sons
To be the ones
To die
On fields so far away.
Send out the leaders
Into a ring.
Just have a throwdown
And the winner
Will be the king
Who still is breathing.

Soldiers for nothing.
Soldiers for fun.
Killing for nothing.
Shooting with guns.
Fires start burning.
Bombs will fall.
Murder makes money.
Death cannot be stalled.
