Dance of the Knee-Jerk Reactionaries - W.D. Neely
We don't want another Bay of Pigs
Fellas, we ain't playin' in the minor leagues
This time we better do it right
Last time we didn't do it right
We don't want another Vietnam
Where they made a monkey out of Uncle Sam
This time we better do 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 desert one
Where our team got clobbered playin' bump and run
Next time we better do it right
Last time we didn't do it right
We don't want another Lebanon
Where our team got clobbered playin' cut and run
Next time we better do it right
Last time we didn't do it right
If we gotta do it, then we oughta do it right.'
They got trouble in El Salvador
We'll go down and help them, that's what friends are for
But this time we gotta do it right
This time we gotta do it right
If we gotta do it, then we oughta do it right.
