WHY GO TO WAR? (a.k.a. THEY NEED MORE TIME)
(by Charles Joseph Smith)

The poem I wrote focused on the anti-war protestors
who want more time for the UN inspectors to search
for WMDs in Iraq...instead of attacking Iraq outright.

[Note: The lyric structure is a parody of Santana's
"Evil
Ways", if you have seen.]

(Verse 1)

O, Why go to war...baby....
Please back off from this fighting thing;
Why go to war...baby...
Let those inspectors dance and sing

Around those W...MDs...Iraq may hide;
Let them inspect for them...for they're on our side...

They need more TIME!!!!

O, why go to war...baby...

Baby...

(Verse 2)

O, O, why fight Iraq...baby?
For the U.S. is in the red;
Why fight Iraq....baby?
Don't do it, for we will lose our head...

Just let the U.N.--handle it...
   Yea, there's nothing to it;
Please don't bomb yet, don't kill yet, 
   Or we will regret...

They need more TIME!!!!

Back off from waging war.....
