Let's Leave Iraq - A Lighter Notes Music Video

A couple of summers ago my band, The Lighter Notes, recorded this song in basically one day in a studio in Hillsboro. My brother put the video together. It's aired on cable access many times, but now it's on the Internet. See if you can hear the slide lick that I recorded on another day that sounds different. Oh well.

Let's Leave Iraq - Google Video

LET’S LEAVE IRAQ AND NEVER LOOK BACK
HOW DID WE GET SO FAR OFF THE TRACK?
PREEMPTIVE WARS RUN BY CHICKEN HAWKS
AND CORPORATE WHORES
WHAT DO YOU SAY WE GET OUT OF IRAQ?

PLEASE DON’T TELL ME, IT’S ABOUT
NATIONAL SECURITY
THEN WHY ARE THINGS 10 TIMES WORSE
THAN THEY OUGHT TO BE?
PERHAPS YOU CAN SELL, YOUR GOOD
INTENTIONS IN HELL
BUT DON’T TRY AND RUN THAT JIVE BY ME

9-11 WAS CYNICALLY HIJACKED BY THE NEO-CONS
THEY USED IT TO GET WHAT THEY WANTED ALL ALONG
AND, BABY, THAT WAS WRONG.

LET’S END THIS WAR AND SHOW BUSH THE DOOR
I DON’T WANT TO BE MISLED ANYMORE
YOU KNOW WE’VE BEEN HAD, IT’S TIME TO GET MAD
WHAT DO YOU SAY WE END THIS WAR?
WHAT DO YOU SAY WE END THIS WAR?
WHAT DO YOU SAY WE END THIS WAR?
