Oil man

With a gun in my hand 

Another one at my head 

Told to fight for my country 

Either way I am dead 

Waiting for, the enemy 

For the enemy to come and save me

Waiting for, the enemy 

Cause this is not where I’m s’posed to be

I hear rumours of oil 

Spilling into the gulf 

I have to ask myself 

What this wars all about 

I remember a day

Seems like a long time ago

When they dropped chemicals 

Upon our own people 

So damn insane

Oil man what’s your gain

So damn insane 

Oil man what’s your gain 

I hear rumours of oil 

Up in smoke it’s been sent 

Are we at war with the west 

Or the environment 

Polluting the air 

And polluting the seas 

You’ve been polluting our minds 

With all the glory to be 

Oh yes they took me away 

Away from my family

Dumped me on the front line

To face the enemy

so with a gun in my hand 

Another one at my head 

Told to fight for my country 

Either way I am dead
