IRRELEVANT FATE

Nine eleven this world cried
As our nation was attacked
Leaders said they had tried
“We will get Bin Laden back”

Soldiers went to Afghanistan
But Bin Laden disappeared
So we got rid of the Taliban
Or it just seemed to appear

Still our soldiers are fighting
They’re where they were sent
But the truth was frightening
Bin Laden is now irrelevant

War Lords now going back
The country we’ve deserted
Because we must bomb Iraq
United Nations to be alerted

We sent in all our inspectors
It was they to make the call
Found nothing with detectors
Still Baghdad will have to fall

Saddam now can’t be found
Our leaders are in agreement
A nation fallen to the ground
The leader now is irrelevant

Another country is on our list
Now Syria we shall liberate
The war takes another twist
I guess we blame it onto fate
