lyrics

I was born in a small town on a river
And I's raised up to be an arrow in the quiver
Of my dear country, and you know it wasn't long
Until they fired me in the name of Shock and Awe

I saw the fields where we harvest all our foes
By whose bleedin the next war becomes sewn
And I asked the planters "What's that crop called?"
"That old heirloom? She goes by Shock and Awe"

I took my ride on the machine
I got off it, but it ain't off of me
I got prescriptions, and I fill em all
Every morning a dose or two of Shock and Awe

I ain't broken; but dyin for a cause,
It requires you forfeit any hope you have at all
So when you call it back home it comes leery, like a dog
Scared away by the sounds of Shock and Awe

I was hurtin for some sympathy today
So I drove out to a spot where they do things that way
And I flashed my high beams and she answered the call
And I looked upon her with eyes of Shock and Awe
