Away in a manger
No room for a bed
A child of Fallujah
Lays down her weary head.
        Shešs shivering, shešs crying
        Hasnšt eaten all day
Under constant bombardment
        Shešs in Americašs way.


Away in a manger ­
        His parents killed in their beds ­
A child of Fallujah (Najaf, Ramadi....)
        Swears vengeance on their heads.
Al-Quaedašs recruiting
Hešs easy to sway
        Under constant bombardment
        Hešs in George Bushšs way.


Away in a manger
Having lost their only bed
A family of Fallujah
Huddles in mortal dread.
        Their livelihoodšs gone
        All possessions swept away
        Kids lying sick and wounded
Theyšre in Empirešs way.



"Troops Refuse To Go On  Mission"
        Falalalala, la la la la.
Itšs a Suicide Expedition
        Falalalala, la la la la.
Don we now our body armor
        Falala, lalala, la la la ­-
Oops, they donšt supply us till next summer
        Falalalala, la la la la!



This is like in "The Caine Mutiny"
        Falalalala, la la la la.
The whole Command comes under scrutiny
        Falalalala, la la la la.
Howšre we gonna get out of this mess
        Falala, lalala, la la la?
Letšs bring all troops home by Christmas
        Falalalala, la la la la!  (Fat chance.)



Si-i-lent  Night
Ho-o-ly  Night
The Desert is Calm
The Moon is Bright;
              Then American Bombers
              Come in to Attack;
              A Sentence of Death
              For a Family in Iraq;
They call it Col-la-ter-al  Da-a-mage
Slee-eep in Heavenly Peace
                              ("cuz youšre Dead).



Silent   Night
Holy  Night							      
Angels would weep
At the sight
Fire streams down
From the heavens afar
The Commanders give high-fives
And go "Hallelujah!"
Sleep in Heavenly  Peace 
                                (IF YOU CAN)
Sleep in Heavenly  Peace.              



Oh  you
Better not fight,  better not cry
Better not shout, I'm tellin you why:
              Paraplegic Dad is comin
              To town.

He's applied for benefits
Sent in applications twice
They seem to ignore him
Whether he acts naughty or acts nice
              Paraplegic Vet is comin
              To town.

He's got some trouble sleepin
He's in pain when he's awake
              He has his  good days and bad days
              So humor him for goodness' sake

So­-you better not fight
              Donšt let him see you cry
              You better prepare yourself
              I'm tellin you why
Paraplegic Mom is the next to come
              To town.
