The Offspring

Producer: Thom Wilson

[Verse 1]
In your plane in the blue sky
You roam again
Words that echo in your mind
Make your heart beat faster
This is no Vietnam
We will win in Iraq

[Chorus]
The President said, "Let it ride, ride"
Islam be damned
Make your last stand
In Baghdad

[Verse 2]
Warrior, the time bombs
About to go
What will you feel
Will you even wonder
If the man that's in your sights
Ever kissed his girl goodbye

[Chorus]
The Captain said, "Kill or die, die"
Islam be damned
Make your last stand
In Baghdad

[Bridge]
Great Satan, great Satan
Great Satan (Our flags are burning)
Great Satan (Our flags are burning)
Great Satan (Our flags will burn)

[Verse 3]
Soon America may find
Its young men in the sand
Where there casualty
Is just a number
In Iraq

[Chorus]
The President said, "Let it ride, ride"
You will be damned
Make your last stand
In Baghdad, in Baghdad
