and now, in the streets of Baghdad.
We fought the monsters made by corporate greed,
We believed what we were told,
We did what we were ordered to do,
but we were blinded by patriotism.
Is not human blood more sacred than oil?

O you great Honors, give us hope!
Speak to us from History.
Reach down to us from your mountain.
Justice is indeed a majestic thing,
and you have the wisdom to wield it
on behalf of the people.
The terrorist threat has been exaggerated,
rule be fear is this president's way.
Turn the tables on him!
Render the punishment he so richly deserves
for his audacious lies,
for his shameful mockery of your high calling.
His smirking face worries us and unsettles our children.
His cry of patriotism is a dark cloud over the land we love.
His words are a dust storm on the road to peace.

Hussein had no hidden weapons of mass destruction,
but this president has concealed much
and he has created much doubt and mass confusion.
Perhaps you learned men have been fooled by him,
but not us, not any more.
