Great minds think alike! I've also done an update of the song.

(Excuse the language)
Now, come on all of you big strong men
Uncle Sam needs your help again.
He's got himself in a terrible fix
way down yonder in Iraq.
So put down your books and pick up a gun,
we're gonna have a whole lot of fun.

And it's one, two, three
what are we fighting for?
Don't ask me I don't give a fuck
the next stop is Iraq.
And it's five, six, seven
open up the pearly gates.
Well, there ain't no time to wonder why
whoopee< we're all gonna die.

Now, come on generals, let's move fast
your big chance has come at last.
Now you can go out and get those reds
cos' the only good commie is one that's dead,
and you know that peace can only be won
when we've blown 'em all to kingdom come.

And it's one, two, three
what are we fighting for?
Don't ask me I've no idea
the next stop is North Korea.
etc

Come on, Wall Street, don't be slow
why man this war's a-go-go.
There's plenty of money to be made
by supplying the army with the tools of it's trade.
Let's hope and pray that if they drop the bomb
they drop it on the Persian throng.

And it's one, two, three
what are we fighting for?
Don't ask me I don't give a damn
the next stop is Iran.
etc.

Now come on mothers throughout the land
send your boys off to the desert sands.
Come on fathers don't hesitate
send your sons off before it's too late
and you can be the first ones on your block
to have your boys come home in a box.

And it's one, two, three
what are we fighting for?
Don't ask me I don't give a fuck
the next stop is Iraq.
And it's five, six, seven
open up the pearly gates.
Well, there ain't no time to wonder why
whoopee< we're all gonna die.
