OPERATION PHOENIX REDUX

(words: Kurt)

(intro is Michael Parenti, from 1993 "Conspiracy and Class Power," available from http://www.pacificaradioarchives.org/programs/category.php?catid=6 AZ1000)

MARCH!!!!

The column moves across the desert 100 miles long

The machine of war boasts a force 200,000 strong

It doesn't matter if what we do comes to right or wrong

Cause we write the history that measures what we've done

We are (hands up) Here (hands up) to liberate (hands up) you

Indo-China's domino measured 5 million bodies tall

60,000 U.S. Troops were buried under its fall

We try to capture hearts and minds with democratic cluster bombs

Now they all die equally when we liberate with our guns
