Story behind the song
Watching young girls twirling guns and thinking (WTF?) this tune almost immediately presented itself. I had forgotten about the twirling guns at the front of the band in parades. "Indoctrination starts so young."
Lyrics
Twirling Guns © timbre wolf Young teenage girls twirling guns A seaman back from war kisses his nurse We send 'em over wet behind the ears We give 'em some medals for their tears and fears Young teenage girls twirling their guns Young boys watch girls twirling guns Who knew that war could be such fun Aldoph made the kids wear brown shirts Not as alluring as the girls in skirts Young teenage girls twirling their guns They think that flowers will greet them Exporting democracy Bullets flying, bombs exploding Is this what it means to be free Young teenage girls twirling guns They think they'll come back heroes To a ticker tape parade But if they're even marching It may be on legs man-made Young teenage girls twirling guns Indoctrination starts so young They go to war for glory and respect They're shipped to Walter Reed with the body that's left Young teenage girls twirling their guns Young teenage girls twirling guns Young teenage girls twirling guns
