Mario Strack - Disarmament Lyrics

Disarmament

We got aircraft carriers and battlecruisers
We got frigates, corvettes too
We got amphibious little assault ships
Mighty destroyers are the clue

We got minesweepers and we got minehunters
And we got torpedo boats
We got submarines that enrich the scenes
Of "naval warfare" whatever it denotes

But what about disarmament?
Will you please tell the people where the billions went?
Hey how about disarmament?
Is it really true that every cent is spent on death
Death and destruction

We got reconnaissance planes and cruise missiles
We got strategic bombers and jet fighters too
And we got spy satellites up in the sky
Watching every breath and every move we do

Intercontinental ballistic missiles
Missiles specifically made for ground attack
Surveillance radar for earlier detection
While helicopter gunships shoot you in the back

We got automatic rifles and machine guns
We got battle tanks and autocannons too
We got anti-tank rocket launchers
And bayonets are nothing new

We got light mortars and towed howitzers
And anti-aircraft artillery
Smitten by the charms of modern fireams
No one seems to disagree
