There is no exit strategy for
the Afghanistan War.
Why? Because religious haters,
loanshark capitalists and war profiteers
want endless war.
This almost 17 year war
is more than 4 times as long
as the Civil War.

Drug bust,
warlords for dope
contraband seizure,
opium harvest
Worldwide addiction,
control of the means of production
NATO's occupation,
afghanistan's exploitation
The CIA is waging an
illegal unconstitutional
and secret war against
Pakistan.
It is a rogue agency
run amuck
turning the forests of
other countries
into slimy muck.

You talk of Benidorm,
Of Aiya napa.
Sangria
Sun and sex.
Your bottled tan,
Your Geordie shore.
Afghanistan
And Lashkar gah .
Of puri tabs
And tepid water.
IEDs,
And senseless slaughter.
The engine roars on the C17
Bringing home another soldier
He was just 18
Liveth on for evermore
He died a Hero in a far away War
Family sob with anguish and grief
Forever in their hearts a place they keep
A son and brother who joined the ranks
Swapped action men for real bullets and tanks
Please don’t cry for me today
For I died a soldier my chosen way

Time to enter the green zone boys
I will not let you down
Not fighting here for Queen & Country
Or the folks from my home town
My soldier brothers are my family now
We fight for our Battalion
Patrolling into the enemy ground
With hearts as strong as stallions
`Crack Thump`
A round goes overhead
The Taliban know we are here
My corporals shouts and quick commands
Dispels my any fears
Section attack with bayonets fixed
We advance towards the enemy
Our rifles fire a wall of lead
As does my trusty Minimi
`Cease Fire` is called
We wait and watch
Then carry on once more
Towards the enemy
We will not stop
This is a soldiers War.
