    Lyrics

    Frankie went to war

    Wasn't sure what for

    Just like the other kids before him

    Sent to make green glass glow

    To fight them over there

    Not over here

    Frankie went to war

    To have his blood spilled on a foreign shore


    Frankie's mama weeped

    Frankie's mama moaned

    Wouldn't have been so bad if Frankie died at home

    And the veterans from the last war say

    These kids weren't born when the towers fell

    Frankie went to war

    He didn't know the horror he would see


    Drones flying high

    Drones flying low

    Looking for the Pashtun guys

    Who are looking for me

    Frankie saw the hospitals burn

    Saw the innocents die

    Frankie went to war

    Leaving only bodies behind


    Frankie heard the whistle

    Saw the shell hit

    He didn't feel the metal

    Hit him in his chest

    Frankie bled out slowly

    On a hot Afghani night

    Frankie went to war

    To be killed at 24


    Frankie went to war

    To help Uncle Sam settle a score

    To help those who can't help themselves

    To train the good guys and dig their wells

    At least that was what he was told

    He was going to do

    Frankie went to war

    On paper it wouldn't be much more


    Frankie went to war

    He wasn't sure what for

    To build an empire out of arms and oil

    To the victor go the spoils

    To spread democracy

    Or just hypocrisy

    Frankie went to war his questions unanswered forevermore
