Crippled Mercilessly by Homemade Bombs - Pretty Little Flower

Stalking streets, occupying force

Foreign children killed by our bombs

I.E.D.

retaliation — shrapnel skull, no tales to tell

Landmine dislocation — car bomb annihilation

«God is great» — a smoking crater

«Mission accomplished» — oil landgrab

Nine years in and going strong

Suckered into a stupid death

By smiling pricks in recruitment posters

Crippled mercilessly by homemade bombs

Wandering the streets in military fatigues

Demoralized by violence, jaded with life

Democracy is delivered by an I.C.B.M

Get 'er done, glamour shot, another senseless death

Plastic leg, «he was a hero»

A steaming pile of human guts

…he might be home, but he’s never coming back
