The Casualties -- "War is Business"

War Is Business

No time to run, permission to go, times running in,
with troops, and bombs, and guns.
From the left and right, people are fighting,
screaming, shooting, fighting, hanging from the ground.

One, two, call the death squad.
War is business, war is business.

Arrogate, fall out, stand in line.

Why do our lives have to go with indecisions,
we have permission to take, to decide, to fight!
More and more fighting its making me sick.
We fought with them, the rich don't have to fight.

One two call the death squad,
War is business, war is business.

Death squad, collision, finish this.

As long as we are here you wont need to worry,
just close your eyes, decide, think on your own.
Can you hear bodies their fucking dead in the streets,
just close your eyes, and you will think and see.

One two call the death squad,
War is business, war is business.

Arrogate, fall out, stand in line

Joe the Country Singer

Two posts ago I wrote about Joe the Plumber. Well, it seems that the media types saw an opportunity and guess what?! Joe signed a deal with a Nashville company. Apparently he is going to record a country music album.

All those illegal checks into Joe's background by the-powers-that-be has created enough media hype to turn Joe the Plumber into a small time celebrity. Who knows, this guy might have enough of a singing voice and charisma to turn into a big time singing cowboy!

Here is the article.
