This song was written on a the Veterans for Peace bus trip to Boston for the Democratic Convention.

Eat the rich
George Bush sent the boys and girls to go invade Iraq
And when they came home he stabbed them in the back
Tried to hide the wounded
Tried to hide the dead
Then he goes and cuts their benefits
Let’s help them out instead.

Support the troops¬¬–and this is how
Don’t cut their benefits–and bring ‘em home right now.

Support the troops in on a billboard
It’s also in the store
When they say support the troops
They mean support the war
They say–God bless America—is this what God means?
We sacrifice our children to get cheap gasoline?

Support the troops¬¬–and this is how
Don’t cut their benefits–and bring ‘em home right now.

Depleted uranium they’re usin’ today
A little bit will kill you—it never goes away
Killin’ Iraqis and it’s killin’ us too
Either they don’t give a shit or they don’t have a clue

This illegal occupation—it’s just another scam
I haven’t seen such bull shit since I was in Viet Nam
Easy to get into war—hard to get out
When they say they gotta stay
You can hear me shout–

Support the troops¬¬–and this is how
Don’t cut their benefits–and bring ‘em home right now.

Versione italiana di Kiocciolina
SUPPORTA LE TRUPPE

George Bush ha spedito i ragazzi e le ragazze ad invadere l'Iraq
E quando sono tornati a casa, li ha pugnalati alle spalle
Ha tentato di nascondere le ferite
Ha tentato di nascondere le morti
Poi va e taglia i loro benefici
Aiutiamoli ad uscire piuttosto

Supporta le truppe---ed ecco come
Non tagliare i loro benefici-e portali a casa proprio ora.

Supporta le truppe con i cartelloni pubblicitari
E' anche nel negozio
Quando dicono "Supporta le truppe"
Intendono "supporta la guerra"
Dicono "Dio benedica l'America", questo è quello che Dio significa?
Sacrifichiamo i nostri figli per ottenere benzina economica?

Supporta le truppe---ed ecco come
Non tagliare i loro benefici-e portali a casa proprio ora.

Uranio impoverito stanno usando oggi
Ne basta un po' e vi ucciderà - non va mai via
Sta uccidendo gli Iracheni e sta uccidendo anche noi

Questa occupazione illegale - è solo un'altra truffa
Non vedevo simili stronzate da quando sono stato in Vietnam
Facile entrare in guerra - difficile uscirne
Quando dicono che devono rimanere
Puoi sentirmi gridare -

Supporta le truppe---ed ecco come
Non tagliare i loro benefici-e portali a casa proprio ora.
