THE VIET NAM WAR
STILL RINGING IN MY EARS
LIKE THE SHIRT ON MY BACK
GOING WHERE I GO
NEVER STOPPING TO REST
ALWAYS TAPPING ME ON THE HEAD
LETTING ME KNOW ITS THERE
REMINDING ME THAT IT WON'T LET GO
THAT IT IS A PART OF ME
AND IT GOES WHERE I GO
WALKING IN COMPLETE HARMONY
AS IF WE WERE ONE
ITS LIKE BEING SIAMONESE TWIMS
WERE STUCK WITH EACH OTHER
WE DON'T LIKE IT BEING TOGETHER
BUT NOBODY CHANGE IT
ITS LIKE A BAD MARRIAGE
WE HATE EACH OTHER
BUT HAVE TO LIVE WITH EACH OTHER
ITS A DAMN SHAME
THAT YOU CAN'T DIVORCE THE WAR
FOR IF YOU COULD
I'D SHITCAN THAT BITCH IN A SECOND
