When Ya Get Drafted Lyrics by Dead Kennedys

When Ya Get Drafted Lyrics

    Are you believing the morning papers?
    War is coming back in style
    There's generals here, advisors there
    And russians nibbling everywhere
    The chessboard's filling up with red
    We make more profits when we blow off their heads

    Economy is looking bad
    Let's start another war /when ya get drafted
    Fan the fires of racist hatred
    We want total war /when ya get drafted

    Drooling fingers
    Panic buttons
    Playing with missiles like they're toys
    There's easy money, easy jobs
    Especially when you build the bombs
    That blow big cities off the map
    Just guess who profits /when we build 'em back up
    Yeah, what big business wants big business gets

    It wants a war /when ya get drafted
    Trilateral commission goonies laugh
    And scheme for more /when ya get drafted
    Call the army!
    Call the navy!
    Stocked with kids from slums /when ya get drafted
    If you can't afford a slick attorney
    We might make you a spy

    Forget your demonstrations
    Kids today sit on their ass /when ya get drafted
    Just a six-pack
    And you're happy
    We're prepared
    For when ya get drafted
