WHAT ARE WE FIGHTING FOR? by Jos. Morales
By 330 BC Alexander contols the world’s riches and power
which brings his invasion of Afghanistan to flower
causing grave loss to his army physically...
not to mention... mentally and financially.

After 4 years of battle he moved through Afghanistan
and with 100 thousand reinforcements... Greek and Asian...
and returns to Afghanistan to kick more ass
and takes Balkh, Qandahar, Herat, and Kabul. Ain't that a gas!

He forms a strategic union with a local Afghan...
A chief's daughter by the name of Roxanne...
before his invasion of India... As fast as he can.
He orders his troops to get some... Hey... He's the Man!

In India Alexander gets an arrow in his ass
and returns to Afghanistan where his ass becomes grass
(He falls ill and dies at the young age of 32.
Roxanne had poisoned his beloved Hephaistion too.)

The Soviets were finally defeated after 9 bloody years
in Afghanistan in 1989 with American cheers
and the Soviet Union disolved in an ocean of tears.
And that's where we come in... With our heads up our rears.

WHATS THAT SPELL? (x5)

Well come on all of you big strong men,
Uncle Sam needs your help again,
he got himself in a terrible jam,
way up yonder in Afghanistan,
put down your books and pick up a gun,
we're gunna have a whole lotta fun.

CHORUS.
And its 1,2,3 what are we fightin for?
don't ask me i don't give a dam,
the next stop's Afghanistan,
and its 5,6,7 open up the pearly gates.
Well there aint no time to wonder why...WHOPEE we're all gunna die.

now come on wall street don't be slow,
why man this's war a-go-go,
there's plenty good money to be made,
supplyin' the army with the tools of the trade,
just hope and pray that when they drop the bomb,
they drop it on the Taliban.

CHORUS. And its 1,2,3...

now come on generals lets move fast,
your big chance is here at last.
nite you go out and get those Taliban
cuz the only good Afghan is one thats dead,
you know that peace can only be won,
when you blow em all to kingdom come.

CHORUS And its 1,2,3...

(spoken)- listen people i dont know how you expect to ever stop the war if you cant sing any better than that...
theres about 300,000,000 of you fuc|ers out there.. i want you to start singing..

CHORUS. And its 1,2,3...

now come on mothers throughout the land,
pack your boys off to Afghanistan,
come on fathers don't hesitate,
send your sons off before its too late,
be the first one on your block,
to have your boy come home in a box

CHORUS. And its 1,2,3...
