While you all still slumber...

Fun & Games
Barenaked Ladies

We sent in the Army
They sounded alarms
We saw it coming from a mile away

We kept it off radar
'Cause we had to say our intentions were to save the day
Why did you fail to see?

It was a gag
It was all for a laugh
They were shocked and awed and they were blown in half

Fun and Games
We were just pulling legs
We knew this barrel of fun would be a powder keg

We kept it all long range
And made a regime change
You'd have thought it would have been a gas
And when it got ugly
We sat around smugly
Because you bought our little joke en masse

Don't look at me that way
It was a gag
It was all for a laugh
We knew your sons and daughters would be blown in half

Fun and Games
We were just pulling legs
We knew this barrel of fun would be a powder keg

Put a smile on
We're the ones that you selected
Leave that dial, son
Beacause we just go re-elected

In a while our bill of rights will be rejected
And all the blame will be deflected
The forests will be unprotected
The Nation's poor will be neglected
Creation myth is resurrected
The new salute is genuflected
The Gallup poll will be respected
A gallows pole will be erected
And all this will go undetected

While you all slumbered
We sat and crunched numbers
Of all the casualties we could afford
There's no need to draft them
You could hear us laugh then
The poor and black all need their room and board
Did I say that out loud?

It was a gag
It was all for a laugh
And now our very nation has been blown in half

Fun and Games
We were just pulling legs
We knew this barrel of fun would be a powder keg
Oh yeah.
