Let's be real... all of us wish we could roll our eyes at a Gold Star mother demanding we re-re-invade Afghanistan.

    to the tune of "I didn't raise my boy to be a soldier!"

    Ten million soldiers to the war have gone,
    and defeated they run again.
    Ten million mothers' hearts must break
    For the ones who died in vain.
    Head bowed down in sorrow
    In her lonely years,
    I heard a mother murmur thru' her tears:

    "I didn't raise my boy to be a loser
    I raised him up to die in blood and toil
    who dares to leave the country that he killed in
    without a single drop of stolen oil!"

    Let nations fear the US and its troubles
    Remember that the drones are here to stay
    We'll win the war today
    so bomb without delay
    I didn't raise my boy to be a loser!
