All Good Soldiers
All good soldiers crack like boulders
The sun climbs up to a razon,
Violins, new boots, and numbers on a chain
All good soldiers
All good soldiers fall in line
When they march and shout-
Are a spectacle
Marching and singing
Will go anywhere the president says-
Because the president believes in god-
Like all good soldiers wait like warheads-
When the fighting starts who will
Be accountable, a cannibal, a cannonball
It's six A.M. I can see my breath
And the clay dirt
Is laughing at the weakling boy
Today is the day
That I'll write my friends
Its something I've been
Trying to remember
I had a dream of a wall
That was twenty-one stories tall
All good soldiers fall in line
When they march and shout
Are a respectable
Marching and signing
Will go anywhere the president says
Because the president believes in god-
Like all good soldiers should
