Lyrics
We don't want another Bay of Pigs
Hey now, we ain't playin' in the minor leagues
Next time be better get it right
Last time we didn't do it right
We don't want another Viet Nam
Made a monkey's uncle out of Uncle Sam
Next time we better get it right
Last time we didn't do it right
If we gotta do it
Then we oughta do it right
We don't want another Black Hawk Down
Let the local heavies chase us out of town
Next time be better get it right
Last time we didn't do it right
We don't want another Gulf War One
Where we got it started, didn't get it done
Next time we better get it right
Last time we didn't do it right
If we gotta do it
Then we oughta do it right
[instrumental break]
We don't want it but we got it now
And we wanna leave it but we don't know how
When are we gonna get it right?
When will we ever do it right?
If we gotta do it
Then we oughta do it right!
