I don’t know but I been told
Hesgeth’s war is bought and sold
Big flag pin and TV grin
We go out, he cashes in

We’ve seen things he’s never seen
Press gets briefed, they clap on cue
We write names and lose a few

Hesgeth loves to shout and pose
We get dust in eyes and nose

Left, right, lock step, keep that beat
Boots on gravel, burning feet

We go home and lock the door

We bear scars, he brands his name
