Oh, the reign of Hussein was frightful
But the oil is so delightful
That as long as we’ve got the force
Stay the course, stay the course stay the course!

Oh, insurgency isn’t stopping
And approval rates keep dropping
But as long as we’ve got the force
Stay the course, stay the course, stay the course!

Well, we brought in our fav’rite firms
And proclaimed that Iraqis are free
Since they don’t seem to like our terms
Crush them until they agree

Oh, the lies we’ve told are showing
And suspicions here keep growing
So we’ve gotta apply more force
Stay the course, stay the course, stay the course!
