Women And Children Last
Susan living down the block was shakin' in her shoes.
Watching CNN hoping her party wouldn't lose.
That crazy bitch, you know she ought to be on meds.
Calls her kids an ambulance each time they wet the beds.
She calls to pester me, she says "Anita aren't you scared?"
"What if there's a catastrophe? There'll be a draft, I'm unprepared."
But I'm not the one gettin' worried about a draft.
People panic when they say that word, I just shook my head and laughed.
There's younger bitches in better health,
I can damn sure take care of myself.
Use that plan, get rid of my man,
And when the Kurds are gassed they're taking women and children last.
Saw the news that night, they said the fighting had increased.
Phone call, will I accept the charges coming from the middle east?
My hubby, what's his name? That's right, I think it's Tom.
Been there since December of that year they caught Saddam.
He calls to pester me, he says "Anita I'm afraid."
But really I know he's just upset he can't get laid.
I'm not the one that's getting sent to fight a war.
Whatever amount, drain the bank account, and we can pay for an Iraqi whore.
There's younger bitches in better health,
I'll take care of myself.
Use that plan, get rid of my man,
And when the bill is passed, they're taking women and children last.
And when the ballot's cast.
