Gilbert We Need a New Enemy: (Lyrics)

Now look across the expanse of the sea
To see if we can find new enemies
And who gives a fig about ideology
As long as they have something for our industry

We've new weapons to test, but not on our soil
Because this will cause some with anger to boil
So we need to look across the expanse of the sea
Just so we can find a few more enemies

One you say, no that's never enough
Cable news needs more so they can sell their fluff
And from our easy chairs watch bombs in the air
For that's entertainment we all can share

Oh say can you see that's the America I know
Let's make a list of countries then go out to vote
And 'though we may not know the geography
We can pick and choose a brand new enemy

Maybe South Africa, now don't you laugh
There's a market here for a pet giraffe
It doesn't matter who, it's for our industry
To have enemies across the expanse of the sea

Maybe France but I'd vote no
Who wants to eat escargot
Maybe Spain, but we'd have censored news
Because nude beaches would make us too confused

So who would you pick for our new enemy
Somewhere across the expanse of the sea
Just remember the cause is for our industry
And some TV entertainment while we eat
