A Cap Gun and a G.I. Joe 1
As moanings echo from the Rhine- I
and water slowly turns to wine
As snake eats mouse-
and cat eats toad-
A cap gun and a G.L Joe
The child in blue alone will pear-
. at atom bombs he bought at Sears
While armored horses lightly prance-
and Dylan does a Disco dance
The C.LA. and Gomer Pyle
go sailing on the bloody Nile
as fighter pilots dive too Iow-
A cap gun and a G.L Joe
The holocaust is soon to swell-
from rocket-launchers by mattell
As soft shag carpet slowly turns-
to jungle brush and napalm burns
With parsites in camouflage-
and maggot swarms- a thick barrage-
As blood steams from-
the Russian snow
A cap gun and a G.L Joe.
