As we stood, stood with pride
We regretted that day that passed us by
it arose through surprise and shocked us all
the towers that stood began to fall

Osama Ben Laden wanted fame
by taking down towers with our plane
they said what he did involved Saddam Hussein
so we went to war to end the childish games

the day of the war, the heroes came out
and showed us what they're all about
everyone's heart was fire red
just like the blood that the victim's shed

now the water falls from our eyes
and every night you hear the silent cries
the people that died still tend to breath
and everyone knows that they'll never leave

now we have finally caught Saddam Hussein
and when it comes to Ben Laden we'll do the same
there are no more places for him to run
and when the soldiers find him we'll have a lot of fun
