So!
One two three!
Oh, oh!
Oh, oh!
Oh, oh!
[Verse 1]
We were part of the slaughter they called Desert Storm
We maimed and we murdered in the name of "Norm"
Now as a civilian, there's something I lack
I'm getting ready to go back to Iraq!
You're over there, we're over here
We've got lasagna and plenty of beer
Learning the tools, the tricks of the trade
Now I've come home, I can't get laid
[Chorus]
Back to Iraq!
Back to Iraq!
Back to Iraq!
Back to Iraq!
I'm back!
[Bridge]
You taught me how to kill
You pumped me full of drugs
Now!
How can you wonder
Why I became a thug?
Raining death on people
Firing into crowds
Over there I got a big bright medal
But here it's not allowed
I'm going
One two three!
Oh, oh!
Oh, oh!
Oh, oh!

We've got lasagna and plenty of beer

Back to Iraq!
Back to Iraq!
Back to Iraq!
Back to Iraq!
I'm back!
