Dig Your Grave Kid

Dig your grave kid
war’s not worth the work that you put in.
Dig your grave kid
they’ll all tell you drinking is a sin.
Just don’t let them see you in a bar.
They’ll say drinking won’t get you too far.

Dig your grave kid
make them bow to you, don’t bow to them.
Dig your grave kid
tell them that they’re cowards, they’re not men.
If you ask them what you’re fighting for,
they’ll silence you so you can fight their war.

Dig your grave kid
go and be a killer like you’re told.
Dig your grave kid
go and die for someone else’s gold.
While they wrap themselves up in a flag,
they’ll sneak you home wrapped in a body bag.
