NEIL YOUNG lyrics : "Shock And Awe"

Back in the days of shock and awe
We came to liberate them all
History was the cruel judge of overconfidence

Back in the days of shock and awe

Back in the days of "mission accomplished"

Our chief was landing on the deck
The sun was setting on a golden photo op
Back in the days of "mission accomplished"


Thousands of bodies in the ground
Brought home in boxes to a trumpet's sound

No one sees them coming home that way
Thousands buried in the ground


Thousands of children scarred for life
Millions of tears for a soldier's wife
Both sides are losing now

Heaven takes them in
Thousands of children scarred for life


We had a chance to change our mind
But somehow wisdom was hard to find
We went with what we knew and now we can't go back

But we had a chance to change our mind.
