James McMurtry - Cheney's ToyLyrics

Another unknown soldier Another lesson learned Kicked the gas can over Strike a match, sit back and watch that sucker burn Keep smiling for the camera Keep waving to the crowd Don't let up for an instance Stay the course and make your mama proud You're the man Show them what you're made of You're no longer daddies boy You're the man, they're all afraid of But you're only Cheney's toy Another unknown soldier We seen it all before All in the name of Jesus Behind the razor wire and shackled to the floor Just keep smiling at the camera Keep that twinkle in your eye We don't need to know the answers Long as we safe, hit your marks and say your lines You're the man Show them what you're made of You're no longer daddies boy Take a stand Give them what you paid for Because you are only Cheney's toy He'll take a fork and turn you over While the fat lady sings One more Pen on, one more shoulders All the future brings For another unknown soldier Who don't know his own name And he won't get any older And he can't see for the shrapnel in his brain You're the man Show them what you're made of You're no longer daddies boy Take a stand Give them what you paid for Because you are only Cheney's toy You're the man Show them what you're made of You're no longer daddies boy Makes you grin When the guns are blazing Bring them home Cheney's toy Makes you grin When the guns are blazing Bring them home Cheney's toy Bring them home Cheney's toy [Repeat: x 2]
