Daddy was a soldier

He taught me about freedom

Peace and all the great things

That we can take advantage of



Once I fed the homeless

Ill never forget

The look upon their faces as I

Treated them with respect



CHORUS

This is my Vietnam

Im at war

Life keeps on dropping bombs

And I keep score



Mama was a lunatic (Yes)

She liked to push my buttons

She said I wasnt good enough

But I guess I wasnt trying

Never liked school that much

They tried to teach me better

But I just wasnt hearing it

Because I thought I was already pretty clever



Repeat CHORUS (x 2)



What do you expect from me

What am I not giving you

What could I do for you

To make me okay in your eyes



Chorus: This is my vietnam

I'm at war

They keep on droppin bombs

And i keep score
