Catching a Cold

Catching a cold – every second day of the winter.
Bad command decisions –every second day of the week

Speculation plus paranoia, is not an excuse for war.
Mob intelligence rules, behind the white house doors.

Today I caught a cold
Tomorrow we load our guns.
Wednesday I catch a cold,
Thursday we shoot the poor.

Burning my skin, every second week of summer.
Bad command decisions, every second day of the week

Fear of death with no reason, is not an excuse for war. No intelligent rulers, behind the white house doors.

Today the sun burns my skin,
Tomorrow we pull the pins,
Wednesday skin is burnt,
Thursday grenades are thrown.
