Machines of War
Now I'm leaving to fly in a warplane
Hitler's coming and he is a madman
I'll be back though so care for our children
Tell them Daddy has left to protect them now
On a mission the sky is a blood field
On a mission you see what our bones yield
Raining bodies, the jet planes are falling
I gotta go now the army is calling me
Time is a jet away
Wish you would lock the door
See how our children play
We are machines of war
Love couldn't make me stay
I couldn't love you more
Just watch how our children play
We are machines of war
The factory will give me my job back
If I make it out of a casket
If I make it I hope you'll be waiting
With the kids and the love never fading out
When you wake please give them a kiss now
When you wake them please tell them I miss them
And when I'm gone please show them my picture
They are so young I hope they remember me
Time is a jet away
Wish I could give you more
See how our children play
We are machines of war
Love couldn't make me stay
I couldn't love you more
Just watch how our children play
We are machines of war
Hitler's coming and he is a madman
I'll be back though so care for our children
Tell them Daddy has left to protect them now
On a mission the sky is a blood field
On a mission you see what our bones yield
Raining bodies, the jet planes are falling
I gotta go now the army is calling me
Time is a jet away
Wish you would lock the door
See how our children play
We are machines of war
Love couldn't make me stay
I couldn't love you more
Just watch how our children play
We are machines of war
The factory will give me my job back
If I make it out of a casket
If I make it I hope you'll be waiting
With the kids and the love never fading out
When you wake please give them a kiss now
When you wake them please tell them I miss them
And when I'm gone please show them my picture
They are so young I hope they remember me
Time is a jet away
Wish I could give you more
See how our children play
We are machines of war
Love couldn't make me stay
I couldn't love you more
Just watch how our children play
We are machines of war
