[Verse 1]
B                     F#              A  F#
Are you believing the morning papers?

B             F#              A  F#
War is coming back in style

B                      F#
There's generals here, advisers there

A                         E
And the Russians nibbling everywhere

B                        F#
The chessboard's filling up with red

A                            C#
We make more profits when we blow off their heads

[Chorus]
F# F#7 G Em7 F# F#7 G   Em7

Let's start another war (when ya get drafted)

Fan the fires of  racist hatred

We want total war (when ya get drafted)
C# B C# E C# B C# E [Verse 2]
B                 F#              A  F#
Drooling fingers, panic buttons

B                     F#              A  F#
Playing with missiles like they're toys

B                   F#
There's easy money, easy jobs

A                   E
Especially when you build the bombs

B                    F#
That blow big cities off the map

A                      C#
Just guess who profits when we build 'em back up
[Chorus]
F#   F#7 G   Em7  F#    F#7 G   Em7
What Big Business wants Big Business

Tri-lat-er-al  Commission goonies

F#    F#7 G      Em7 F#    F#7     G   Em7
Laugh and scheme for more (when ya get drafted)

Call the Army, call the Navy

Stocked with kids from slums (when ya get drafted)

F# F#7 G     Em7   F# F#7   G    Em7
If you can't afford a slick attorney
N.C. We might make you a spy [Solo] B B C G# B B C G# E E F C# E E F C# [Chorus]

Kids to-day sit on their ass (when ya get drafted)

Just a six-pack and you're happy

We're prepared for when ya get drafted

When ya get drafted
