MURDER FOR HIRE
by Brian McLaughlin
Death and dismemberment that's what they bring while songs sung of heroes are the tunes that we sing Soldier on soldier a body count is the score but it's the folks who build weapons who are winning the wars It's all about money satisfying their greed the rich filling their storehouse while they haven't the need Today's wars they're for profit of money, of land and the worlds children keep dying as we strike up the band When will we stop will it ever end war, murder for hire was not meant as a friend
