The Lyrics

Inspired by the essay, "Surge Protectors" by Greg Mitchell, who writes, "...Inside reports suggest President Bush has already decided on sending many more troops to Iraq starting next month. Until now, the media has bought into his labeling of this as a mere "surge." But the media needs to call it by its proper name: escalation."

(instrumental intro)

Bush said he wants an es-ca-la-tion:
His war surge, a fake show.
Faker wants to rule the world.
A dictator defying our nation;
To his war, we said, "NO!"
Faker wants to rule the world.

And now Bush talks 'bout more destruction:
"Let's go attack Iran!" - hear him shout.
Bush will not tolerate peace; just fight.
Just fight!
Just fight!

Bush says, "No diplomatic solution!
Through war, we will show,
That we're tougher than Iran!"
More war and prisoner execution
Sets Bush all aglow.
We're all booing such a plan.
But war means big money for cronies of Bush, who hate
To lose sweetheart contracts all guaranteed by the state.
Bush will not tolerate peace; just fight.
Just fight!
Just fight!

Bush says he'll change our Constitution;
What he says, must go.
Our nation must change its head.
Impeachment is our only solution;
Bush and Cheney must go!
No more should our troops be bled.
Faked stories of terrorists, no one believes right now.
Bush ain't gonna make peace with anyone anyhow.

Bush will not tolerate peace - just fight!
Just fight!
Just fight!
Just fight! Just fight! Just fight!
Just fight! Just fight! Just fight!
