Welcome to 2003 minus 25   Oh, say can you smell her for the smoke   God's still up there laughin' so He's gotta be alive   Who says He can't take a dirty joke      Power isn't, power does and power slips away   It's so easy to abuse   Who'd've thought them Arabs would've bought   The USA just to give it to the Jews      Singin' crime still don't pay just like it used to   And you know that time slips away till you die   And you know that I don't give a damn when I choose to   And you know that it don't hurt so bad when you're high      Oh, say does the future of the homesick   And the brave even matter anymore   There ain't no more reason for them boys   To run away than there was to fight before      Would you tell me why the hell we'd try to win back in a war   What we wasted in the last?   Might just ain't as righteous as it used to be before   When your army's out of gas      Singin' crime still don't pay just like it used to   And you know that time slips away till you die   And you know that I don't give a damn when I choose to   And you know that it don't hurt so bad when you're high      Singin' crime still don't pay just like it used to   And you know that time slips away till you die   And you know that I don't give a damn
