They only target foreign skin
I’m sure it will break just a few limbs
And not see an apartment cave in
It will whistle past the Russians,
Saying hi along the way
Give reverence to the Iranians
“Get out of my way “
Bombs are “smart”
They only pinpoint the “exact foreign skin “
But when the families are laid out on a cold hard floor
The breath of life beating no more
Well
“We will have to do better next time
Start those fighter planes”
Let it begin
Again
And again
And again
And again
