Lame Duck Arsenal

Lame Duck Arsenal

(album: Capricorn One (Singles & Rarities) - 2010)

It's been a long eight years and still no end in sight
To the paranoia and stagnation our worst fears taking flight
Over the Atlantic in the frozen darkness before dawn
And they never saw it coming so now our protagonist is gone

And still we never question why and when we do there's no reply
From the ones who have it all, the ones who have it all
An outdated necessity to keep our country free
Too bad, we're fresh out of enemies

See how we look down our noses at other nations
Who try to keep their best for last
While we've got silos full of the good stuff
Whose usefulness has passed
With a hearty handshake and a gun to the dome
We'll get NATO to condone
Our peacekeeping missions of cold war nostalgia
With nuclear back-up

And still we never question why and when we do there's no reply
From the ones who have it all, the ones who have it all
An outdated necessity to keep our country free
Too bad, we're fresh out of enemies, enemies

Will it ever end?
This thermonuclear nightmare disarm now
What will it take?
To wrest the power and control from the hands of a jaded few
Bittercold warriors
And overzealous situation-room patriots
Might take it into his own hands
To rekindle that old flame

And still we never question why and when we do there's no reply
From the ones who have it all, the ones who have it all
An outdated necessity to keep our country free
Too bad, we're fresh out of enemies, enemies
