Vietnam Veteran

Why new wars are needed I can not tell
Old ones are not done yet
Their dvds are cheaper than redbox and you don't need to return them
Profits he said go to alcohol because he is an alcoholic

I'm not sure why I did not buy
No idea I have where redbox profits go

What is it they defend
I would like to know

Our military he said is the best in the history of the world
Policy is more important than readiness
Is it the best in the history of the world?
Cloudy with a certainty of death

Who will approach my grandchild to sell cheap entertainment
If we have no more war
Certain problems solve themselves

Does it make any sense to drop
High explosives upon the only place we know that can sustain us?

They will not listen they say
What do they have to say
Consume conspire a con does not worry about externalities

What is external to you;  we are all at war and this is important
You can not believe in an omnipotent god and limit what that means
Is not one world enough

Destruction solves no thing
Policy could but does not

There were many best militaries in the history of the world
Not one has not fallen

Love never will
As old as old can be
Never more never less

Unlimited data plans promise no wisdom
The best deals find you
Vietnam still is not done with my neighborhood

I wish we could finish one thing before blowing up another
Perhaps I'm sensitive,  I've seen explosions on television and through my Window;  not even a light day away from you

We have answers for only the most difficult things
War games for years have included IS
Self fulfilling prohesy is the easiest

There is more honesty in his sales pitch than anything I've known
Say No and let me talk you in to it
Don't say yes and not do

He is a parable I try to understand a war forty years gone
I only know these new ones are no answer
Korea has better and cheaper Internet
But when was the last time they bombed anyone?
